Pros

stable job, my BU hasn't layoff anyone in 10+ years, good stock refreshes. ok work-life balance. nice people

Cons

base salary is too low compared to other soc companies. promotions are slow, with minimal salary gain. no reviews by peers or yourself, everything is based on your manager like you or not. ok work-life balance, but been asked by the manager to stay in the office for 8 hours before my promotion. most of the people here are 40+/50+ and have been here for 10+ yers. if you are in the early stage of your career, hard to fit in.
