Pros

Challenging, interesting work, with plenty of job mobility. Everyone changes jobs internally every couple of years, and that's accepted. As a whole, my coworkers are smart, industrious, and collaborative. They are genuinely nice. Even the jerks are nice compared to some of the yo-yo's I've worked with in other companies. The hours are very manageable, and it's possible to work 40 hours and have time for a real life outside the office. FT employees appreciate the perks like a free gym, subsidized lunch, on-site Starbucks, and employee parties and family days.

Cons

There's a lot of fat here. The marketing organization in particular has a lot, and I wonder how they keep their jobs given how many airy ideas they have without results to show for it. I don't think most of them realize how good they have it here, since it's been so long since they've had layoffs, so they can be a bit complacent. Many people work remotely, which can be a good or bad thing, depending on your work style and perspective. It can be very bureaucratic. A simple task can be routed to five different people before you finally find the person who can get it done. Finally, it is a matrix organization, so sometimes you feel like you're herding cats.

Pros

Legacy benefits are good but I would not be surprised if those start rolling back as well. The individual contributors who do the work are great, and most people have a "we're in this together" mentality.

Cons

Rolling quarterly layoffs, removal of RSU programs, less-than-industry-standard pay, senior leadership is nothing but hot air. There is no space for innovation, so our products are dinosaurs now- and going extinct as our competitors do things better.

Pros

Great network of smart, clever people. Innovative products with a fantastic leader as SF Product head. Some really smart, much needed collaborations and partnerships recently announced.

Cons

Loose focus of the customer at times making a CSM role more difficult than it should be. Internal policies are cumbersome and clouded making a CSM role about chasing help vs providing customers support. A lot of uncertainty across all LoBs and roles can make for a very chaotic and toxic working environment even though lower level leaders attempt to limit the disruption. You have to be a strong, independent worker to drown out the noise.
