Pros

• Benefits package w/ 50% 401k match • Professional growth and development opportunities • Work culture • Discretionary Time Off (DTO) policy • Talented colleagues

Cons

• Bureaucracy is real • Internal Politics and infighting is common • Base Salary is average when compared to other Big Tech, annual merit increases are not great either • Promotions are now extremely difficult to obtain, and compensation increases from them are often minimal at best (better off boomeranging) • Recent massive reduction in remote work opportunities, while they were previously championed as the future and only benefitted the business and the employees

Pros

I love the company, the senior leadership, and the mission to help people. I get to work with some incredibly brilliant people.

Cons

Per usual, don’t expect people managers to help you with your career. Actually, you might Get one who actively tries to use you to make themselves look better, in an unethical way. I blame the reports and job market… brings out the worst in people.
