Pros

Environmental Systems Research Institute is a great place to work because of the wonderdul climate and professional atmosphere. Everyone is very welcoming and friendly. There are no cubicles so it makes work a lot less stressful and a more enjoyable place to work. The benefits are payed for by the company which is really great because that will save you a lot of money in the long run. There is even a starbucks in the cafeteria.

Cons

The flat management structure makes it difficult to move up within the company. People find them staying in the same position for a very long time.

Pros

Esri pays your health insurance. A few extra holidays that other companies may not offer.

Cons

-Below average pay for California. Already a struggle living out here due to cost of living. -Support services is a mess. We have to bend over backwards for customers always teetering on scope of support. Might as not even have those guidelines anymore if it's a constant battle for internal resources to back you. -Constant releases of software that breaks customer workflows. Too many bugs. Lack of QA. -Whats the point of middle management if all decisions have to come from higher ups that have no understanding of supports day by day. -Unwillingness to let senior employees work from home. And if you do work from home they hold it against you if you want to apply to an internal position. Almost like a thinly veiled threat. -Other teams feel the need to steam roll support sometimes, often leading to fragmented relationships. -Lastly there is way too much work and never enough people.
