Pros

(+) Good salary. (+) Good benefits. (+) Nice facilities - nice building, nice offices (but sound easily passes in & out), gym & fitness classes, cafeteria, game room, walking path, covered parking lot.

Cons

(-) It used to be a friendly company that cared about its customers & employees, but then became all about the bottom line regardless of the impact to employees' outside lives & health and the quality of the product. (-) Very tight deadlines with lots of changes added to each release & new releases packed very close together so no time to catch your breath or make improvements. (-) Features & bug fixes driven by marketing, not engineering. (-) Marketing tended not listen to engineering in regards to whether the proposals were a good idea or not. (-) Marketing tended to make changes seemingly just to be able to say they made changes despite the changes adding no value to the customer. (-) Senior leaders did not seem to have a good understanding of technology, software, the software development cycle, or how to inspire & keep good talent. (-) Leadership seemed only interested in shareholders which generally works in the short term but not long term.

Pros

Pays well, nice work notebooks, don't check office attendance until they need someone to fire

Cons

My whole team and management up to VP level are on visa or offshore. They're not interested in including other cultures. No direction except looking good for immediate manager. Lots of favouritism too. Expectation to accommodate offshore times. Tech is a legacy hodgepodge of unnecessary implementations that only we're made for the resume of the developer. People let go randomly, so no use to work hard or smart, only thing that matters is if the right manager likes you.
