Pros

The HDD development requires some of the leading technology, including controls and metrology. There is not a lot of slaps on the back but you can extend your knowledge greatly. Overall, Seagate employs some of the brightest engineers in the world across all fields.

Cons

Large company that provides the latest technology in a commodity market. That market happens to be computer hardware, one of the worst. This industry is not expanding headcount, just revenue and profits.

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.
