Pros

* nice office location * competitive compensation package

Cons

* complete chaos in management - shifting direction 180 degrees every 6 months * culture in the office not as it used to be * unnecessary layoffs * life on promises: - promises of new product and expansion (instead there is a layoff) - promises of multisport for 2 years - promises of career growth and opportunities (instead you support legacy solutions)

Good place to work

Pros

Proves a good compensation package and excellent benefits. Good opportunities to collaborate across teams and do interesting projects. They hired good people and provide opportunities for you to be successful.

Cons

“The Workday Way”. Over my tenure I noticed many managers come in from other companies and then leave or get pushed out. If you want to be successful, start as an individual contributor and work your way up.
