Pros

You get 4 weeks paid leave (up from 3) and 3 holiday days after five years. Pretty stable. Relaxed work environment. Flexible working hours and days.

Cons

Process, Process, Process. Like typical Corp America, you get buried in the red tape to do anything. There's a stop and start button for change management. If you press the stop button 1 sec after the change window, your change is marked failed and you have to go to a change advisory board meeting to explain why and get a verbal beating. They kill any innovation. Penny smart, pound foolish.

Pros

Friendly coworkers and managers Good PTO Hybrid work schedule

Cons

Frequent layoffs Unreasonable work expectations No upward movement Low pay vs market Some departments don’t abide by hybrid expectations, so your team may be there 9-5 three days per week while another team shows up once or twice a week for only a few hours. Overly focused on AI while the stock still underperforms.
