Pros

There are a lot of great people and the product lines are interesting. Benefits are good.

Cons

A lot of the great people have left or have gotten laid off. Layoffs are unannounced, are dragging on over days and not acknowledged by leadership, leaving teams and projects in limbo. Some middle managers express strong showy opinions and show agreement with management on the RTO policy, but don't come in when their boss isn't there.

Pros

Strong technical expertise within the organization. Exposure to a broad range of customers and applications.

Cons

My experience at this company was disappointing due to a lack of transparency, consistency, and fairness in enforcement of company policy. Compensation for employees in the same or similar roles varied significantly, with decisions often appearing to be based on individual manager discretion rather than clear, objective criteria. I also observed what appeared to be gender bias in pay decisions. Additionally, there were employees who contributed very little while others carried a disproportionate workload. This was extremely demotivating for those who worked hard, as there appeared to be little recognition or reward for taking on additional responsibility and delivering results.
