Pros
Good salary(if you are a permanent citizen) Liberal with Work from home (see cons) Getting to work with some of the best technical ones(i worked at several places before) Getting to work in the latest technology and software out there Feedback is well appreciated Parking is free. Come early though to get a parking under the roof Snacks fruits and soda are free Good company to settle down with working partner Health insurance is far lesser than what you pay at other so called big companies There are very helpful and technical people. You have to identify and get the help from them
Cons
If you are an immigrant you will be paid much lower. And don't forget this company has too many levels and they don't easily promote if you aren't good in socializing and political games. Beware : QA team has too many ladies playing loud mouth that are supported by people speaking same language and zero technical skills but who have the capability to put you in bad light If you ask for help from a wrong person you will be doomed and dusted across teams :p Work from home is available based on your rapport with manager and management and not the need. I was denied permission to work for less than a month while some are working years together from home(ohh they aren't the best in class) If you are not good in estimating task time , socialize but do a lot of work this isn't a place for you. You will be cornered, look down upon or worse won't grow beyond senior or lead. All in all this place is good for getting your skills updated and not for people who do work. It's a great place if you can organize and delegate stuff. You are the best fit
