Pros

Good work/life balance, some good teammates among the rest, benefits are great, if you're able to completely drink the Kool-Aid then you can find some satisfaction in the work itself

Cons

Rolling layoffs - you should never feel secure, negotiate a good starting salary because you will not receive a raise higher than 2-3%, senior and other upper management rule by fear, opportunities to advance are granted by politics and who's your friend and NOT by merit, a program called the MMWay is a model for self-micromanaging both your time and your projects and is a drain on the company, morale is exceptionally low company-wide

Moving US Jobs to India, technology run by business

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Pros

Work/life balance, flexibility, annual bonus, generous leave policies, free food

Cons

The technology area is run by people who don't understand technology and decisions on technology are made by business folks. There's little challenging work and it's all vendor integrations, so no opportunities for SWEs. Most US jobs are going to India because of this and a focus on cheap instead of quality. Leadership has no accountability or transparency. No promotions or US hiring in many technology areas for over two years now. Layoffs every six months where full teams are cut.
