Pros

Nice office and free lunch with BBQs on Fridays during the summer.

Cons

Notified HR on several occasions about workplace bullying. Was told they spoke to the person more than once and that didn't seem to work. Even had them take sensitivity training. They just tolerate it from this person who will not change and struts around like a playground bully. HR knows it is a problem but ignore it. Too many ill informed managers who like to stroke their own ego. Good performers get minimal increases in pay. Big egos that are not approachable.

Pros

Variety of projects, opportunities to collaborate across teams, and exposure to different areas of the business.

Cons

Frequent leadership turnover creates constant shifts in priorities and makes it difficult to maintain long-term direction (I had eight different managers over seven years). Annual layoffs, often occurring around January, contribute to ongoing uncertainty and low morale. Many employees perceive the layoffs as happening in smaller rounds, which adds to the sense that job security is unpredictable. The culture can also feel cliquish, and your experience depends heavily on your manager; some teams foster collaboration, while others are more micromanagement-driven and less receptive to differing viewpoints.
