Pros

Work/Life Balance Encouraged and financially supported to train beyond the current role Active Mentorship encouraged Supports community service in employees Plenty of opportunities to react to crises and stand out for going above and beyond

Cons

Diminishing health benefits Market disrupted and transitioning primary products offered Excessively diverse portfolio of products that are post-mature and too complex to re-engineer Newer generation and culture of management that is encouraged to micromanage and limit natural standout talent from self-identifying and self-directed energy and effort Transitioned from a culture of hiring the best and most experienced from the market, attractive top talent to recent college graduate focus to reduce costs associated with headcount with the intention to "build" expertise and experience.

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.
