Pros

The benefits are good. You can move around the company if you get bored. Lots of exciting projects.

Cons

Way too many directors that are not very useful. The middle mgmt is out of control. It is normal to be in a meeting with directors and no one able to make a decision. The company has a serious issue with miniorities. Women working the same amount of time as men are not promoted as the same rate. Men are automatically put in mgmt roles without interviews or allowing women to apply. The rate of women in mgmt is pathetic.

Pros

* I enjoyed the collaborative team culture. Everyone was supportive and willing to help each other. * The work-life balance was good, and the overall working environment was relatively low stress. * I had opportunities to work on large-scale enterprise products and collaborate with cross-functional teams.

Cons

* One area I felt could be improved was compensation growth. As my responsibilities and technical skills expanded, I was looking for opportunities that offered stronger career and compensation progression.
