Pros

WFH, work pattern days, will pay for relevant tuition

Cons

mentor kissed me on the neck, seniors assume I'm HR, managers don't listen, manager who has no idea what I do will tell me how I performed in the year while forgetting my awards/deliverables/customer feedback, my work gets attributed to other people, literally people have attributed my ideas to men in the room after they just repeated it because I was too quite, there's a figure head in the org chart where I should be, only loud confident people get promoted or people who put pragmas in cpp who play tennis with the managers get promoted, half work week is spent in unnecessary meetings that could be emails or meetings about how we can be physically safer. Managers have no accountability. managers are happy to make 5+ employees sit around for 30 minutes for the manager to realise they can't make it to the meeting. pay discrepancy between men doing my job and myself is 20-30k.

Benefits are great, base pay could be better.

Currently the major location with jobs are not attractive, pay should reflect the undesirable location.

Pros

Work-life balance has been great at the Long Beach site. My coworkers are very considerate and supportive. Benefits suck as parental leave and 401k, Roth 401k, and mega backdoor Roth make it so you can really get ahead in terms of retirement building. They are trying to get better in culture and performance rather than some companies that don’t even pretend to care. During the pandemic there was no training. Now there’s some!

Cons

Base pay can be slightly lower than other companies for specific skills. Each site and each organization within each site has its own culture depending on who is the VP/executive team. There are so many executives it’s hard to get things done. Things move very slowly.
