Do not care about employees at all, you are just a number in the system

Pros

hybrid environment they have good benefits like $1 health insurance

Cons

they are not loyal to their employees at all, i just got fired along with with 100 devs (allegedly) for WFH on office days for a few days throughout the year for health related issues (with no warnings or nothing). after their stock dropped in Q4 they were just looking for any reason to get rid of employees instead of fixing the actual issue. work is very stressful and you will spend months looking at the same module just to understand what's going on, and once you think you are comfortable with the code and feel like you can solve any problem they will fire you for their benefits, it's honestly sad how they can do that to you. pay is relatively low they always promise something and change up when it benefits them. always remember HR is not for the people

Not Loyal To Employees

Business Outlook

Pros

In 2019 this company was not bad to work for but after COVID the management just keeps making really bad decisions. They had some decent stock options but they are cutting back. They use to give bigger pay raises but that's no longer a thing either. Somehow they are consistently Top 10 or #1 work place, but In the 6 years I've worked there I've never had a survey about it. Its a company that looks good and might be good for the first few years but you will get burned if you stay to long.

Cons

They are currently firing developers that have worked from home when they are not suppose to without any warning or advance notice. There is a disconnect with HR and Development currently that could affect the companies overall outlook. HR just sees names to fire. In reality they now have large portions of payroll critical code that no one knows how works. Most devs struggle to understand this code and some quit. Financially speaking the company is doing great, but Chad is in his ivory tower and is not loyal to his employees at all. You will be fired without any real reason. To clarify my WFH was approved, but the management that approved it wasn't suppose to. My entire team was fired including my TL.
