Pros

Work life balance, health benefits.

Cons

Pay and total compensation isn’t very competitive anymore. 3 layoffs in the last 4 years. The last layoff wasn’t well organized with no input from managers. Lots of attrition since with not very many backfills. Too many key stacks being handed over to overseas contractors.

Cons

There is always a learning curve when joining a new company, especially while understanding internal systems and processes, but the team has been very supportive.
