Pros

Good benefits, nice facilities overall, industry leader (1st and 2nd place in various areas)

Cons

Location from where most employees lived (Santa Cruz County); lack of raises; lack of bonuses; when someone leaves the company or is let go, others will have to take over the job responsibilities without the position being back-filled; fear of retaliation of issues that might get brought up; lack of management response to issues needing addressing (turning a blind eye/good ol' boys club); if you want a promotion, you have to leave the company; no respect or concern for the humanity working at the company.

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.
