Pros

A highly intelligent workforce, great place to challenge yourself in many ways, very ethical company with pretty good pay and benefits.

Cons

Like many large companies, it's easy to find yourself in a "hamster wheel." Leadership promotes to management roles primarily based on ability to do a specific job well as opposed to an ability to manage people well. The company will always put its interest first before the advancement of a single employee.

Pros

We work with geniuses - in every department, We create innovative products that thrill our customers and create new product categories - who else can say that?

Cons

ZERO ZERO ZERO work/life balance. Execs have been saying for YEARS that they understand and will make it better. But in actuality, it gets worse every year! It is obviously top management LIP SERVICE because if they meant it, they could fix it tomorrow. They have hundreds of BILLIONS in the bank. If they REALLY cared about employee work/life balance, they could bring aboard the right number of folks to make that issue dissolve. Sick of hearing the lies. Just don't lie about wanting to fix it, when they clearly DON'T care
