Pros

Some honest and good engineers work there. A lot of dumb people who call themselves engineers too but thats probably the same no matter where you go. Good benefits package.

Cons

Management takes advantage of everyone. Overwork, and underpaid. H1B and college grads beware. Internships are OK. Just don't apply for a job here after you graduate. Short term incentives are a joke. At least for non-exempt.

Pros

- The company itself is doing well financially, allowing departments to take on bigger projects - Great work-life balance culture and unlimited PTO that actually allows for generate usage - Casual culture that encourages collaboration - Non-salary benefits are strong, with even lower-level employees benefiting from the stock purchase plan

Cons

- Despite its strong position, the company does trim headcount for the sake of efficiency - Work ethic seems complacent, but is offset by company's strong financial standing - Management can be cut-throat, but strong performers usually do well - Salaries are below market rate
