Pros

Can't think of any. I was employed

Cons

Where does one begin. Asks for way too much and the compensation isn't sufficient for what is required. No flexibility. Like most,company extremely top heavy with senior management receiving mid to upper six figure salaries. Concerned more with ranking highest on great places to work rather than BEING a great place to work. Huge disconnect between management and employees who actually do the work. More concerned with "appearances" than realities. Moves entire departments from.site to sure with no regard as to how those changes will affect employees. Does not stick to promises made. Follow through horrible. All in all NOT a great place to work unless one is senior manager, ( CEO, VP, SVP,EVP). CEO dumped over 126k in stock collecting over $4 million all the while they were shutting down entire departments. These appears to be common practices with this company. Spends more $$ on handing out tshirts and tumblers and handing out pizza as opposed to simply paying employees a living wage and bragging about how they're a $6 billion dollar company. Easy to be that when senior execs only people enjoying huge salaries. Was not a pleasant experience to work there at all.

Pros

Great company to work for , 4 days week and no meeting on friday were great perks to have when it comes to work / life balance

Cons

Senior leadership feels distant and uninvolved with the day-to-day realities of the engineering teams.
