      Lots of backstabbing and office politics

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Esri's main campus in Redlands is beautiful, with all kinds of trees and places to meet and eat outside. The owners of the company are very pro-environment, and it shows with recycling programs and solar panels on all the major buildings.

      Cons

      HR is actively hostile to employees; lots of office politics and backstabbing, moreso than most companies I've worked for. The company leadership tends to regularly set unrealistic deadlines for projects just to force employees to work harder.

      Pros

      Esri has a very flexible working schedule and has decent benefit package and a pretty nice profit-sharing plan. You can lot help from within via various sources such as internal email groups and websites.

      Cons

      Career movement is very limited. You can stuck in one position for years. You don't know what can get your good raise.
