Pros
Solid benefits - 4% 401k match, good insurance, $15/mo fitness stipend, decent retirement account investment options. Everyone on the manager level & downward is pretty cool. 9/80 schedule is nice; I was never expected to work long hours nor was anyone I was close to, but I heard stories of other people doing so and being given comp time afterward. Salary merit increases are reasonable, but titular promotions are usually given a year late.
Cons
Salaries are slightly below industry average but not offensively low. Leadership has made a lot of changes over the past couple years, all for the worse: vague & irresponsible AI initiatives, removal of a remote day for zero communicated reason, horrendous execution of a necessary layoff, asking employees to come into the office the day that windows were smashed by weapon-wielding protesters, and probably more that's escaping my memory. I recall 4 instances of a VP yelling at one of their peers or direct reports over 2 years. They held an anonymous employee satisfaction survey and promised to release & discuss the results, which never happened (certainly because of the embarrassing results that they didn't want to acknowledge). It's evident that leadership is out of touch with both the times and their employees' satisfaction, hence the ongoing exodus of engineers. If there's an engineer who hasn't left the company, it's because they haven't found another opportunity yet.
