Pros

Stable company (So far, but could change) Good mission (On the surface) Health Benefits (Good, but declining)

Cons

So many similarities with the Trump Administration. 1. Terrible Leaders: People are promoted based on favoritism and who have bent the knee. Forget about the most intelligent and experienced person with integrity and leadership skills being promoted. You will find promotions and people in senior positions that absolutely make no sense. 2. Fear and blind loyalty: Often unprofessional and bullying behavior by leadership (Especially within GBD), where these bad actors will still strive and other leaders and most employees will say nothing. Much like republicans that probably know better, but are unwilling to take the risk and do/say the right thing. Why bother with ethics training when the leaders do not value ethical behavior, and nothing is done about bad behavior? 3. Lack of awareness: GIS is great, but living in a GIS bubble without realizing or caring enough about what is happening in the environment. 4. Lack of true DEI: Just look at the directors and you will see. 5. Big promises but no delivery: Claims of career growth, inclusion, being valued as an employee are all BS. Promises of decent profit sharing that has never happened over many years.

Pros

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.
