Pros

Competitive base salary and benefits package Exposure to enterprise-scale infrastructure and products Strong brand name that carries weight on a resume Opportunities to work with experienced, technically skilled colleagues Stable work environment with established processes

Cons

Post-acquisition integration has been chaotic — teams are constantly restructured with little communication Middle management is disconnected from ground-level execution; decisions feel top-down with no room for input Career growth is slow and opaque; promotions depend heavily on visibility rather than performance Culture has shifted significantly — feels more like cost-cutting is the priority over people or innovation
