Pros

coherent strategy and compelling vision

Cons

layoffs and cut remote work options in half in a region with some of the worst traffic in the world. I face 240 hours a year commuting. Others face double that. All to satisfy the (few) extroverts who miss the "energy" of a crowded workplace. fully remote competitors will have a field day poaching employees. this may ne by design; f5 hasn't been hiring technical employees in the usa for years.

Pros

Best place to work and has flexible timing.

Cons

No Job Security; firing happens whenever management changes. In 3 years, management changed twice, and new management applied new rules and ideas. Currently, F5 is in a cost-cutting program, and already 623 employees have been fired. Upgrading Skills won't happen.
