Pros

Flexibility in work schedule, the team morale really depends on the leader

Cons

They have been bringing in a lot of Microsoft employees in the past 2 years and it does seem like salary ranges are going up- however, if you are a current employee it's challenging to get a raise. They don't promote from within and typically leadership will hire from outside as well.

Pros

Good pay, great benefits, great people to work with, boss is great, etc.

Cons

Company is undergoing transformation, so it's a bit chaotic. Have to work with old stuff and new stuff at the same time. Hopefully that will change as we transform further.
