Pros

Can't think of any except that I leanered what an uncaring and I reputable company Seagate was.

Cons

Was recruited away from another company after over 12 years along with several other associates and they misrepresented the situation. After 7 months they layed off over 1000 folks and it severely impacted my financial position. I was told several things that were just not truthful. After 20 years somewhere else I could not believe they would do this to someone. They did not care about the impact it had on the recruiting associates. I was pursued for two months and they were not forthcoming with the real situation at the company. The gift that keeps on giving - after that they were phished and gave out my w2. Now I have fraudulent income tax filings.

Pros

Great technology for the era of AI. Stock is doing well.

Cons

High performers have been laid off based on market/biz unit goals. Outsourcing/derisking is a thing lately.

Pros

Fast paced workplace. Lots of data to master SQL and data analysis

Cons

Toxic AF. Everybody seems to lower to 60% effort because the risk of getting tired is immense. If you give 100% and have to take a break and someone sees, the big boss will yell with a grumpy neurotic southern old man voice. Trust me, it is very unpleasant. If you are male, don't get hopes up for a promotion if there are any eligible girls. If it isn't done on purpose, then the general culture of cattiness and gossip will accomplish it anyway.
