Pros
- Lots of internal growth of employee resource groups in the past couple of years, giving minority groups the ability to build a community and push for a more diverse and inclusive environment - Internal mobility program also allows for personal growth - Great work-life balance with many in management setting the example - Lots of great mentorship opportunities, either as a mentor or a mentee - Benefits are excellent, especially in terms of health insurance - Company handled quarantine awesomely, business looks strong for the foreseeable future - Work-from-home for nearly all employees through the end of 2020, with moves to allow for teams to be more flexible on WFH in 2021 - Volunteering and charity donations are encouraged, and can be matched by the company (up to $100/yr per employee)
Cons
- Like most companies, your direct manager determines how much of the company culture is applied to your day-to-day. Many are great, however, there are certain teams which may be run a bit differently, so work-life balance may not be enforced or modeled by leadership there. - Lots of "happy hours" and drinking alcohol during celebrations. There have been some moves made in the past year to address this, by offering non-alcoholic drinks at functions, and covid has reduced the rest of the events, so there may be changes in the future. - Work-from-home is not work-from-remote, as your compensation is based on where you live. So moving out of CA or WA to the midwest would invoke a salary reduction - Not much diversity in the exec team, even after several years of "addressing it" - Humongous gap in terms of compensation between lowest paid employees and C-suite
