Pros

Great salary, great benefits, 70% off lunch, very stable company

Cons

No competitive spirit. Energy spent on lots of internal fights and analysis on top of analysis on top of even more analysis. All hands meetings are a joke. They dont even take questions

Pros

1. Interesting tech work for the most part (but not enough of it). 2. Excellent work-life balance 3. Strong tech employees/ engineers 4. Competitive compensation for the most part. 5. Excellent benefits

Cons

1. Verisign is a one-trick pony, content to milk it's com/net monopoly for as long as it can. However, that lack of revenue diversity means they are one outage away from being destroyed as a company. Best case, they'll be a 500-person company in a few years. Get ready for big layoffs. 2. Senior management (director and above) are some of the worst I've seen in my career. Political hacks with virtually no tech game. Causing an exodus of top-notch tech talent to competitors. Verisign senior management wouldn't recognize talent if it walked up and bit them in the nose.

Pros

Good work/life balance Company is financially stable and performance. Compensation is above market

Cons

Limited opportunity for advancement. Middle management never provides opportunities to employees to gain exposure, thus limiting advancement opportunities. Politics among executive and management ranks. Cannot agree on direction and overall strategy as conflicts are regular occurrence between organizations of the key leadership teams.
