Business outlook
Pros
- Very talented, motivated employees
- Great atmosphere
- Great campus
- I came into work every day knowing we are selling a product that improves the world, which in my eyes is the best motivation!
Cons
- Location is okay, but no one really wants to live in the Inland Empire
- Pay could be a little better (although the internships are still well paid!!)

We love seeing your enthusiasm for Esri! We wish you well in your future endeavors.
Esri pays your health insurance.
A few extra holidays that other companies may not offer.
Cons
-Below average pay for California. Already a struggle living out here due to cost of living.
-Support services is a mess. We have to bend over backwards for customers always teetering on scope of support. Might as not even have those guidelines anymore if it's a constant battle for internal resources to back you.
-Constant releases of software that breaks customer workflows. Too many bugs. Lack of QA.
-Whats the point of middle management if all decisions have to come from higher ups that have no understanding of supports day by day.
-Unwillingness to let senior employees work from home. And if you do work from home they hold it against you if you want to apply to an internal position. Almost like a thinly veiled threat.
-Other teams feel the need to steam roll support sometimes, often leading to fragmented relationships.
-Lastly there is way too much work and never enough people.
