Pros

My time with Motorola Solutions was great from a culture perspective. The people were a joy to work around and very driven. The teams had great cohesion and worked well together. As long as you're working hard, giving effort, the likelihood of a promotion or receiving merit is high. Unlimited PTO is a very nice benefit if you remember to use it and Motorola offers a 401K which they match your contributions. Working remote is fairly flexible depending on your manager.

Cons

High workload with no relief offered by management although aware of the high workload. The pay is far below what you would expect for market rate. Compensation is based off of a national average instead of localizing the pay based off your reporting office location. This type of policy will cripple your base salary returns if you are working in-office within a larger scale city. Products that are being pushed out are nowhere near maturity but sales are forced.

Pros

I highly value the autonomy I am given to manage my own workload, and I thoroughly enjoy collaborating with several of my talented colleagues.

Cons

That independence comes at a cost. The company is incredibly disorganized and siloed. Management will force lateral moves on you without asking; I've ended up balancing four different roles with absolutely no pay increase. Requests for fair compensation compared to the peers I trained were completely ignored. Territories change constantly, but zero training is provided. You are essentially left entirely on your own to figure it out.
