Pros

Fantastic technology, smart people, 4 weeks of vacation.

Cons

Management does not value people or diversity - only profits, uniformity, and submissiveness. Work/life balance non-existent in some areas - the company owns you 24x7. Layoffs two plus times per year whether needed or not. Very political.

Pros

The company offers excellent training and a thorough onboarding process, helping new hires feel well-prepared and confident. The small, close-knit teams foster a collaborative and supportive work environment where you never feel lost in the crowd. Employees take pride in the innovative technology and software being developed, which is recognized as impactful within the industry. (Note: The company was acquired by Microsoft to bring potential for future growth.)

Cons

While the company excels in many areas, there’s limited upward mobility, especially in certain career paths, which can be frustrating for those seeking advancement. Additionally, feedback from employees often feels like it’s not taken seriously, which can lead to disengagement when trying to influence change or improve processes.
