Pros

+Work Life Balance: Quite easy going slow pace routine job. Friendly working environment. No pushing. +product/function based organization. For example, every product line have their own PM, engineer, manufacturing team, mechanic, QC, R&D, etc. Making every individual have clear view of their job response.

Cons

-hierarchy too vertical, too complex, making the company difficult to improve policy, adapt new strategy, or even change some minor processes. -traditional performance review, based upon politics and seniority.

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.
