Pros

Entrepreneurial environment with lots of smart and collaborative staff. CEO has strong vision for businesses and will drive the company to success over time bringing disruptive technologies to market.

Cons

Evaluations come down to a popularity contest and not a review of achieving goals. Restructuring and reorganizations are too frequent and highly disruptive. Staff feels no job security leaving many to search for other, more stable environments and turn-over being very high.

Pros

Great benefits, good work and life balance if you know how to manage it. The design software products are amazing.

Cons

Too many politics and layers, things move very slowly. Lot of people have the attitude of either “it’s someone else’s fault” or “it’s someone else job to do that”. People and team work in silo, lack of transparency and cooperation. Some people get their way for (silent) promotion and ad-hoc overseas “home visit/business trips” just because they can “talk to” the manager. Some even bullied new comers. Salary is not set in the right target for the right experience, gender might be a contributing factor.

Pros

benefits are good, that is all can be said for pros

Cons

-even though they use agile, most still work in silo. -create massive of layers with in the overall systems and expect things to performs in 1 sec. -never ending of design changes or project getting placed on hold as management want to change focus, this is with in 6 month to 1 year -no clear direction on end goals but just wants to use anything that is new but may not benefit the company's system -too many teams working on the same system with overlapping designs and function clashes.
