Pros

Work life balance is pretty good on my team, but I have heard it can vary depending on manager, particularly for engineers who are part of an on call rotation

Cons

Poor senior leadership. Very focused on micromanaging workers (e.g. you must be in the office three days a week even if your team is in other cities, and there's a performance review goal that 20% of our code should be AI generated). Senior leadership has made it very clear they don't care about employee feedback on these issues.

Pros

The pay is market average, and the benefits are quite good. I love my peers. The vast majority of them are kind and talented people. I truly enjoyed my first several years with the company. Well past the honeymoon period for a new employer. And at the time, I recommended this place to anyone I knew looking for a job.

Cons

Management is a mess from the bottom up. The culture of the company has drastically changed over the last several years because of frequent retirements, layoffs, and reorganizations. Employees I know from across describe the same experience: the company has gone from outstanding culture to one that feels openly hostile to its employees. Management decisions are built like cudgels and enforced through all stick and no carrot.
