Pros

Good Culture Lots of Opportunities Was a fun place to work while it latest.

Cons

Work dried up from January 2023 to March 2023 and layoffs happened. I was part of those layoffs even though I landed a project in April. Management is slow to respond to change.

Pros

- Strong place to be early in your career as it provides valuable training and the brand recognition can create strong future opportunities. - Is great if you’re interested in what you’re doing/selling

Cons

- 5 days in office is not great for work/life balance - If your manager doesn’t like you, good luck! - 401k match is lower than most companies - Base salary compensation is weak compared to other big tech - Leveling/career progression is near impossible due to reorgs leading to a promotion “freeze” - Role can evolve over time in ways that may not align with original job expectations
