Pros

Very smart people in the tech department and across the company, can definitely learn a lot. Engineering culture is slowly growing. Very nice perks in office, good pay, Great culture, WLB is good too

Cons

Corporate Bureaucracy at its finest, leadership sometimes can be running around with their heads cut off, and switch priorities without communicating with engineering squads. Very hard to move up as well and move outside of your role. Also not very diverse sadly

Pros

Zero, none that I can think of

Cons

This place is now turned into a completely nightmare for IT professionals, and is becoming a hub for outsourcing IT staff. No one cares employees as anytime they can outsource to vendor to do the job. The turnover rate of employee is skyrocket, many teams have none employee but IT contractors. Inevitably, some teams’ manager will favor IT contractor over employee. Sometimes during meeting, non-English conversation can be heard regardless people understand or not. Upper management does not care about either. I had a one-on-one meeting that’s been rescheduled more than 10 times and guess what happened at last, it’s CANCELLED. One of my managers will do nothing but forwarding emails or delicating work out. There is no sense of recognition in terms of your assigned work and just throws stuff at you.   If you want to burn out fast, work in toxic environment, tolerate incompetent upper managers, or like to watch peacock, then this is ok to stay for less than 1 year. There is no growth here in whatsoever.
