Pros

Great Benefits, it is world class!

Cons

HR is not supportive when requiring help. People abuse the short term disability and nothing is done. The site head is abusive and denigrates people in public making them cry. The environment is toxic and political. People only care about getting product out the door. There is .no regard for people. All the right buzz words like psychological safety and respect are written everywhere, just rarely practiced. If poor management behavior is confronted, you will be terminated.

Pros

Global company with deep internal knowledge and expertise. Path to market

Cons

FOMO hits hard here. Constant reaction to outside influence and activity by competitors resulting in playing catch up. Constant leadership changes resulting in strategy changes. Lackluster pipeline
