Pros

This company is immoral. They cover up a lot of violations and errors. If you report them, you become a target and may as well find another job. Lots of illegal practices and as long as they get away with it, they will not correct it. I still hold on to all of my documents in the event there is a need for them. Company morale a d culture is subpar.

Cons

Everything. Poor management. They don't follow their own policies. They are dishonest. They will lie and fabricate information in a lawsuit. Workplace bullying and harassment is never properly addressed. It is allowed. They even lied about my employment dates to cover up the fact they had terminated my employment while I was on medical leave, which is illegal. That was not the only illegal thing they did.

Pros

Work life balance (pre-RTO, anyway)

Cons

Leadership continues to peddle an untested new way of working that the new CEO invented. The purpose appears to be to gaslight us into feeling we have ownership of decisions that impact ourselves and our customers, when in reality the former leadership teams have simply retreated into shadowy "champion squads" and continue to make decrees that help no one but themselves. You can expect the CEO to take his bonus after layoffs and ride away into the sunset, leaving in ruins what used to be a vibrant and meaningful place to work.

Pros

Salary, work-life balance, remote work

Cons

One of the worst engineering cultures I've encountered in my entire career. Incompetence, nepotism, micromanagement, false promises, and incredibly poor engineering standards. Managed by people who worked there for decades, seen nothing beyond it, and mostly care about visibility (meaning speaking loud, reason being a secondary concern) and "tech leads" with 3-4 years of experience (one becomes a lead based on location, but it has to be US).
