Pros

Legacy products but well position with cloud portfolio of products with combined strong data center position. Good attempts at improving the culture, diversity and inclusion. Building a broader portfolio of software products and well aligned with all 3 hyperscalers.

Cons

Leadership is lackluster and sets up groups to compete No career prospects for anyone not out of a Microsoft background Very high turnover in most areas so teams are often understaffed

Pros

Amongst the top companies in the data storage industry = company stability.

Cons

If you'd ask me a year or 2 ago, I would have given the company 5 stars. But, as with most tech companies now, they've started to follow the trend of return to office, regardless of logic. There's little to no room for exceptions and the company would rather sacrifice productivity regardless if they know the hardships for people living in metros (one way commute to the NY or SJC office can take 2 hours one way!) - that and there's no commuter benefits. You have to pay out of pocket and live in fear of not receiving your bonus if you miss the "thrive together" quarterly requirements.
