Pros

Very few as this is not a company that values its employees.

Cons

This is truly an awful company with horrible management. In all my career have never seen employees treated as poorly as here. The absolute worst behaviors are rewarded. The culture is not of teamwork, collaboration, inclusiveness, and respect. Due to outsourcing and downsizing, everyone is out for themselves. There are major reorgs on average every 6 months. Morale is the worst I've ever seen. Biggest mistake of my career was joining this company. Because of the culture of fear, no one is willing to provide open and honest feedback and all too often people fake or ignore what is plainly obvious because management doesn't want to hear anything except how great things are going. Very hard to move around or advance because they would rather hire outside than promote their own people. Amazing how even simple processes are made overly complicated and designed on purpose as a form of job security.

Pros

• Decent benefits • Some good individual contributors and colleagues.

Cons

• Extremely high workload — regularly expected to work 60-80+ hours per week • Constant scope changes with unrealistic expectations and impossible deadlines • Upper management was disconnected and showed little concern for employee well-being • Highly political environment where internal politics often outweighed actual performance • Mass layoffs that eliminated roughly half the engineering team, followed by offshoring many roles to India — even after many of us had dedicated 4+ years to the company • Extremely stressful and unsustainable culture leading to widespread burnout
