Pros

Good benefits. Company car, 401k, pension, PTO, etc. Flexible calendar.

Cons

Low salary when compared to competitors. They say they have a better benefits package, but it's not significantly better than others. Management at all levels seem extremely out of touch with what's happening at the individual contributor level. Engineers are stretched thinner than ever before. They flaunt no layoffs during a pandemic, but fired plenty of people who refused to get vaccinated.

Pros

* Great business model at the foundation * Solid compensation program: Base salary + bonus * Sustained high profitability over the long term * Stable employement * Pension Plan

Cons

* Extremely hierarchical and regimented * Promotions based on favortism rather than true merit. Employees are precategorized and stigmatized on their ability for future career progression. * Extremely focused on metrics and internal objectives. This leads to box checking, cutting corners and bending rules to meet the numbers. * Extremely heavy workload. No work-life balance. * Management doesn't really incorporate employee feedback; they pretend to to check a box. * Quality of job suffers to keep up with quantity. Everything is becoming data driven and the data is often wrong. Enormous pressure to hit a button and accept at face value whatever the system spews out. * Our CEO builds fancy gold plated office buildings that aren't needed and pulled the plug on hybrid work to justify the investment in the real estate.
