Pros

Total compensation is top of the market. Good benefits, matching 401k, free DEXA scans, nice HQ.

Cons

Chaotic management. Violatile stock price, one year you can make a lot of money with your RSUs, the next year its all worthless. Progression is hard, on paper they have a standardized rubric for leveling engineers but when it comes to calibration that's when the gaslighting and the caveat starts.

Pros

* Above average compensation * You may work close to bright engineers

Cons

* Extremely toxic environment, no grow, no progression, no promotions * If you do not make on your own a high visible project, you will end up in a freezer * After the Cultural shift a few years ago, there is no teamwork, no coordination, many people doing the same and reinventing the wheel * Expect to stay in your same position for 10 years. * Claim equally employment but it is not, check the C-Suite board * Many people leaving think the same, candid feedback year-over-year. Ask what is the retention rate before joining the company * There is no innovation. CEO should resign at this point for a real Cultural shift
