      A great company in decline

      Software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      * Great benefits. * Good pay. * Great product. * Generally pleasant professional atmosphere. * Great managers and smart engineers. * Excellent work-life balance.

      Cons

      * Management has decayed over the last several years as cronies of existing executives have been added. * Several rounds of layoffs and heavy voluntary attrition. * An impending acquisition by Amazon could mean drastic changes to company's structure, personnel, and values. * Highly risk-averse business plan and recent poor earnings reports. * Isolated pockets of sexism and bigotry can make the workplace unpleasant if you're unlucky.

      A good company that could easily be even better

      Principal software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      At corporate level, management really cares about the well being of their employees. By and large, the best co-workers I've ever had.

      Cons

      Some middle managers have their own agendas that don't really mesh with the good of the whole. Some middle managers don't want the real answer, they prefer the preconceived one inside their heads. Promote excessive 'feel good' approach to not hurting anybody's feelings until its too late.
