Pros

- Technical Learning is immense - Switching your domains is possible and is very well supported - Is the best company to start your career with due to the learning - Technical risk taking is encouraged and supported

Cons

- No performance appraisal system, the evolving system is employee infriendly and opaque. Your performance is at the discretion of higher ups and you will just get to end results (Good/bad) - No formal mentoring system. It exists on paper but is discouraged - Fairness is not the central idea of performance appraisal.

Pros

Great learning opportunity, would recommend to new college grads Above average pay for the industry Very friendly colleagues who want to transfer knowledge WLB is team dependent

Cons

Team has reduced to 1/3 of original size in less than 2 years, but BU is mostly hiring in India Refuses to hire externally in US (only internal reqs) to fill roles lost from attrition, instead management dumps responsibilities on rest of team members (with no pay raise to match) Management refused to address 2025 layoffs, employee morale is very low Limited mobility and (capped) yearly performance bonus Restructured profit sharing to effectively be a pay cut (-7%) Unclear job description, constantly changing priorities, management is out of touch with employees Innovation isn't emphasized, new products are mostly IP re-use Employee burn-out common Definite decline in work culture since 2023 RSU vesting schedule is bad (4 years)
