Pros

The location of the office is great.

Cons

Aside from the location, most things about this company isn't good. Management has its favorite employees, and they form a small circle that discriminates against other employees. This company doesn't reward hard work since promotions and raises are only given to the employees who manage to join their circle. You'll survive this company if you like sucking up to the boss. But if you are a dignified employees who works hard, then this company isn't for you.

Pros

-Compensation -Benefits -Smart and capable co-workers make the day to day easier to navigate

Cons

-Poor leadership (specifically in the Quality organization). - Leadership does not lead by example - It's not unusual to observe a Quality VP or Sr.director taking screenshots of Teams chats (for CYA?). I question the level of trust (in both directions). This behavior creates a toxic environment. - Quality role scope creep- leadership tries to "own" and/or oversee the activities of other departments outside the scope of their QA responsibility which makes execution of processes cumbersome and, in many cases, non-value added and confusion over responsibility ownership.
