Pros

- rsu were for management but now capped - no one wants to work so unanimous silent days - if you are very motivated you can learn

Cons

- management is like that of animal farm - everyone is equal but some are more equal than other - you want to learn how to go into politics this is best place to start - you can do a phd in caveman psychology - india vs usa 247. They keep fighting like rabid dogs in upper management. - to make india win this race , managers and especially directors will keep pushing you to work on useless stuff which has no impact eventually. - Wanna be AI company, is not even a tech company - vibe coding is pushed now days - attrition rate is super high in leadership, daily new person will show up make some north star plan and disappear - entire company is reinventing the wheel in silos, now they hired some talent to solve this but the fellow is too much into his own head to understand or listen on ground issues - over scrutiny, no boundaries, and no love for tech. - race politics at peak - food is bad on most days, everyone will go at same time in idc and then whole building will smell like a dhaba - few bright eyed engineers are always downgraded by colleagues and seniors - list can go on and on - truth is this was not Sam dream , in-fact sam was not a techie but a capitalist and like all capitalist sentiments there is class divisions , race politics and concentration of power and wealth

Pros

Advancement opportunities, great at developing skills, great place to learn a skill and grow your resume, or grow with the company.

Cons

Understaffing issues negatively affects all parts of their business. However, Walmart has increased their minimum hourly rate with hopes to attract more committed employees, and retain better employees.
