Pros

You get to always work with leading edge, industry changing technologies and initiatives. It has a very diverse group of engineers you get a chance to work on many different projects. It has a very open working atmosphere, and most people respect each other and very little politics goes on.

Cons

Often require long hours. Although as the company grew much bigger over the past 6,7 years, it seems the quality of people are no longer as top notch as before as is commonly the case for most companies as they grow bigger. Of course it all depends on which group you work in. Over the years, I have observed my group lay people off who have worked there for years without even sending out an email or have a goodbye party, and you don't find out the person is no longer there until an email bounced back. I found this a bit disconcerting.

Pros

Fantastic work culture, great work life balance. People are genuinely excited about what they are working on and the projects are cutting edge. Unlimited tokens (for now at least). Flexible hybrid policy, and easy to take PTO. Leadership is very forward thinking, for a large company there's a lot of sense that employees matter. No layoffs in almost 20 years. Food is pretty good and subsidized. Great benefits, and competitive compensation especially for hardware roles.

Cons

Only minor gripes - currently no gym, and the parking is very limited at HQ. This is being addressed, but won't be completed until 2028. Company has been growing faster than the offices, so there aren't enough desks for everyone. Slightly inconvenient when you can't get a temp desk where you need, but most of the time it's no problem.
