Pros

Great Work-Life Balance: -Most of the tasks are outright pathetic, not worth the effort/thinking. -Most of the tech stack is something one wouldn't want to touch with a stick. The Work: -Varies from team to team. -I managed to at least find exciting tasks/domains to explore and extract as much learning/knowledge I could from the masters in the domain. -Some teams/sub-teams do most of the heavy lifting while others just leech.

Cons

"Cons" -The whole org seems to be running a very long con. -Mergers after mergers, Renames/Rebrands -Recently merged with Xperi AND STILL up for a split/sell-off AGAIN. (I wish I was kidding, will be copy-pasting the review under XPERI too)

Pros

This role is flexible time wise. It provides a lot of down time within one shift. The supervisors were understanding about errors, and supportive when training. Very small amount of training required.

Cons

Have to be able to watch and listen two two television shows simultaneously.

Pros

The office building was nice and there are some great people that worked there.

Cons

The leadership was a bunch of men just trying to protect their own egos and line their own pockets. I never worked anywhere that felt as dismissive of women as TiVo.
