Pros

Money. Free food. free transport. RSU based on performance for a period of 4 years.

Cons

No work life balance. No appreciation for work and effort. Unrealistically high expectations. No knowledge sharing. No learning opportunities. Under employed company resulting into excessive workload. Manager won't even listen to suggestions for improvement within team as they believe they have exceptionally outstanding work culture. They still use very old tools with CLi for code management which results into wastage of time. Indian Manager try to save their collar resulting into they being toxic and unjust. More you deliver more they expect without any appreciation. Everbody just trying to save their job. Generally they have employees working for many years in the same project with no understanding of what is going on in the technical world.

Pros

Fantastic work culture, great work life balance. People are genuinely excited about what they are working on and the projects are cutting edge. Unlimited tokens (for now at least). Flexible hybrid policy, and easy to take PTO. Leadership is very forward thinking, for a large company there's a lot of sense that employees matter. No layoffs in almost 20 years. Food is pretty good and subsidized. Great benefits, and competitive compensation especially for hardware roles.

Cons

Only minor gripes - currently no gym, and the parking is very limited at HQ. This is being addressed, but won't be completed until 2028. Company has been growing faster than the offices, so there aren't enough desks for everyone. Slightly inconvenient when you can't get a temp desk where you need, but most of the time it's no problem.
