Pros

- Established name and brand in most current market segments - Technology roadmap seems promising but too soon to tell - If you like the industry or the function, the job might be meaningful and interesting depending on what team you are part of

Cons

- Core values don't seem that important in practice. One example is the way they treat workforce reduction, people are just a number. I'd been through a reduction with a different company before, and I was treated much better. - Leadership seems lacking, too many managers with one person under. Changes didn't seem to trickle down to actual people's daily activities (in my experience) - Learning can be slow and difficult because there is no official mentoring in place and knowledgeable people are very busy or uninterested in transferring knowledge - Slow to innovate, release new products and implement strategic plans.

Pros

Work from home, flexibility, paternal leave policy, pension plan

Cons

Pay is low and has not kept up with inflation. Leadership is only DEI hires, and they do not seem to understand the actual work being done. They are making life miserable for employees by adding unnecessary KPI's and performance tracking to make a name for themselves within the senior leadership. No loyalty for employees, they will let you go in the blink of an eye if the business struggles.
