Pros

The life insurance for new hires is pretty good and you might need it cause this job will probably wreck you so go ahead and sign up for the 1 million plan just in case

Cons

so like 9 or 11 months ago leadership did some big reorg to fix things but guess what they didnt and the people who actually know how stuff works got pushed out and now everything is slow and annoying and theres more rules and more waiting and more steps that make no sense nothing got better just more problems dont expect to move up here either because hardly anyone gets promoted and the pay is worse than other places if you do get a raise it wont be much instead if they think you might quit theyll throw stock at you but you cant have it for four years if you leave or get fired before then too bad you get nothing and theres nothing you can do about it if they keep doing what they always do there will be another reorg in like 5 or 6 months. if youre thinking about joining you should ask how decisions actually get made. if no one can explain it thats probably your sign to leave. nothing here ever changes.

Pros

Every group/division can be different in how they treat their employees, but I'd say overall there is very good atmosphere of trust and fairness. There is a strong focus on education, and they reimburse for outside classes taken (Up to 5k/year I think). Benefits are good, and I'd say quite competitive in the market. Good 401K matching (they'll contribute a max of 3% of your 6% or greater). Free drinks in the breakroom. Flexibility to work from home at times. (If you live 50+ miles away from an office you can work full-time from home...policy).

Cons

They don't try to make the workplace anything special (maybe a pool table and arcade game are cliche or gimmicky?). In the 10 years I've worked there, they've given 2 measly %1 cost of living raises (this is the same with most everyone I've spoken to, some don't get any raises). You will not get a substantial raise ever, unless you leave then get rehired on (they will not match offers, better to leave). New employees that you train will make 10 - 20K more than you several years after you hire on (not just me, they do this to all tenured employees). They will give these untrained, less experienced people higher titles (again this is done to everyone not just me). You learn pretty quickly that you're dispensable. The company has billions in cash and they don't re-invest in their employees, just in acquiring new companies and hiring new people that know nothing that you get to train.
