Pros

Slightly higher than industry average salary package

Cons

Worst work life balance I’ve ever experienced. Sky high expectations with no support. Terrible on boarding process. One size fits all approach and EXTREMELY micromanaged. No clear direction, pulled in all directions to suit newly created deadlines. Very much an Us v Them attitude from senior management to all other staff. Non existent HR support. Non existent maternity or sick benefits. Extremely high staff turnaround even in middle management team. Threatened with warnings and bonus withdrawal for silly little things, even when over acheiving on sales targets. All in all a soul destroying company to work for !

Pros

Just you get an opportunity to work in the USA MNC

Cons

IT head does not know anything, and he hires same kind of managers who does not know anything. There are many layers, but not leaders. Work on weekend, and on extra hours to show your importance , and be ready to accept late evening stupid calls, if you have any other opportunity than please go ahead, eventhough I am on EP, but i decided to leave this organisation in a short duration and going to join a start-up.

Company is growing fast but no such thing as culture

Pros

Great benefits (stock, health care, etc), work-life balance is achievable if you have a great manager and a great team, and stable with a lot of growth internationally.

Cons

If you are looking for a "move fast break thing embracing positive changes" type of culture like Google, Facebook, or other tech companies in the Bay Area - this is not Align. Align is doing amazing products, but the company culture is in the toilet. There's not really any culture whatsoever and upper management doesn't really care about their people. A lot of inefficient processes everywhere in the company and employees are always playing firefighters. Very old school management from upper management to HR. You can't feel that they really care about their employees at all, they focus more on expansion, revenue, and defeating the competitors. There are so many other awesome companies in Silicon Valley and Align must have a hard time attracting talents because our culture never stands out.
