Pros

Highly skilled peers, excellent training options, great people. Average to above average pay and bonuses.

Cons

Massive influx of middle and high level management has made the company feel extraordinarily top-heavy. Many policy, culture and benefit changes have been announced in the last 6-12 months. At this time, it has been made obvious that ONLY the investors matter in the long run at the expense of customers and employees. Quality of product releases have dropped drastically.

Pros

* I enjoyed the collaborative team culture. Everyone was supportive and willing to help each other. * The work-life balance was good, and the overall working environment was relatively low stress. * I had opportunities to work on large-scale enterprise products and collaborate with cross-functional teams.

Cons

* One area I felt could be improved was compensation growth. As my responsibilities and technical skills expanded, I was looking for opportunities that offered stronger career and compensation progression.
