Pros

Most people are very personable. Great benefits, including small things like dry cleaning, shoe and clothing repair on site. Overall very good people.

Cons

Incentives need to be changed so that people are more willing to work together (be helpful) across areas. Employees are very helpful to their boss and immediate team, but it is hard to work people in other areas. There is a "silo" mentality. Even within one's area, people are very political.

Pros

• Decent benefits • Some good individual contributors and colleagues.

Cons

• Extremely high workload — regularly expected to work 60-80+ hours per week • Constant scope changes with unrealistic expectations and impossible deadlines • Upper management was disconnected and showed little concern for employee well-being • Highly political environment where internal politics often outweighed actual performance • Mass layoffs that eliminated roughly half the engineering team, followed by offshoring many roles to India — even after many of us had dedicated 4+ years to the company • Extremely stressful and unsustainable culture leading to widespread burnout
