Pros
Pre and during pandemic this company put it’s employees first. Post pandemic is another world. The pandemic is still present (all the precautions) but the pandemic is over (come back to the office). The inconsistency of what you can/can’t do drives employees insane. Looking for perm work from home? Make sure you don’t live within driving distance to the office. Only new employees are offered permanent options, not existing ones. No room for growth in certain areas of the company. If you want true flexibility this isn’t the place. They are slowly working back to a 5 day in office work week.
Cons
Pay is pretty good, nice bonuses, great people, my managers were top tier.

Great company with supportive and talented people, an excellent work/life balance, and a positive culture. I truly enjoyed my time there and will miss it, I really loved working at this company.
Cons
Some processes and team structures could benefit from further modernization, particularly in expanding Agile adoption compared to leading IT organizations.
This place has really gone in the gutter over the years, hard to see how it will turn around. If you’re thinking about joining, the industry is
Good but I’d stay far far away from GAF
