Pros

Spacious new office, free lunch and unlimited snacks

Cons

Management weak and not focused. Trust no one in H.R. if you want a job where you can just collect a paycheck this is for you. If you are looking for meaningful rewarding work. Look elsewhere.

Pros

Free food and snacks Nice building when maintained Can do 0 work and get paid Stable as long as you play the political game Wellness benefit is grossed up Perfect for moonlighting

Cons

Incredibly dysfunctional Organization as a whole Building is not maintained too well anymore Management only cares about their advancement Individual Contributors are either coasting or pushed out by the management team Business does not pay bills on time No room for professional growth/advancement Nepotism No product advancement Management constantly changing direction Weak technical talent Low Compensation for a large company in Silicon Valley (at the IC level at least) Individual achievements/performance is not a factor for promotions or advancement Most people do not care about the project Decisions are made by the largest complainer Lack of mentorship for lower level engineers Individual contributors are scapegoats Bureaucracy for everything Managers makes false promises to thier managees. No transparency Main company is pretty much a cult and you are expected to fall in line and say how great this place is and how great the company is doing. Any issues that go against the status quo are met with responses such as "We will create a committee to investigate the issues in 3 quarters" which always yields "There was nothing wrong with the existing process"
