Pros

Pay is good. Work from home is nice on snow days or kid sick days This place used to be great. I made some really good friends with smart people

Cons

Endless rounds of layoffs. Political people kept while good engineers laid off. Layoffs in October cut some great people and we were told this is now a layoff company like Cisco, get used to round after round of layoffs. If you like night and weekend work stay here. It used to be that there would be “overtime” on big deadlines but it would go back to “normal” after the deadline passed. Now, arbitrary deadlines are everyday and there is no decompress time. The job has gotten more high pressure and there is no work life balance. I used to think this was a manager-based issue, but now it is company wide Security business is bringing down the ship.

Pros

Competitive salary at time of hiring with bonus and RSU's. Good benefits and unlimited time off.

Cons

Management chose to personally throttle amount of time off of their employees equivalent to a junior workforce member, despite unlimited PTO. Negative and boarder line abusive direct management and lacking in positive team building. Management preference to maintain status quo and minimize risk at cost of employee job satisfaction instead of embracing transformative and design approach.
