Pros

>Lots of learning opportunities. >Large number of resources for learning at free of cost > Many opportunities to take lead on projects > many opportunities to work on new technology/projects > They take into consideration about your interests and encourage to build on it > great Infrastructure and good working environment > Flexible timings > Flexible work style - Can work from home or go to office. Depends on team and project. >No micromanagement > Very supportive senior managers >Quarterly bonuses

Cons

> Be ready to have your leaves revoked. Hearing "We have a critical issue" or "We can't lose any more hours this Quarter" is very normal. >Flexible timings mean that there is no pre/ post work hours. The entire day is your working hours. -Can't disconnect with work as you're expected to be available on email/ phone / slack any time of the day. - Meetings at odd hours is very normal (such as during lunch/ dinner break, night anytime between 9pm -midnight). Ad hoc calls are common. - Unless you work like a robot ie. Can complete your work within the 8 hour work window in a day, forget about your time for hobbies. If you want to stay healthy then somehow you can crunch in time for working out at home and eating in between meetings. -If you're someone who likes to sleep early and wake up early then forget about that lifestyle. You will be working until late night. - Working on weekdays can be expected at times depending on project. - LITERALLY no team outings, activities,etc even though we pay small amount monthly for Employee Club. After a lot of requests we had a sports day event, in which we still had to work. -No team outings. There is a lot of talks about "budget approval" . How can such a big company have any issues with funding ? - Even on the days of a fun activity you still have to work which brings us to the question: How can this help us disconnect from work ? - No cab service. - Cafeteria meals is Average - Unnecessary Political advertisement in their official page. They posted about the Israel Hamas war supporting Israel. This is a large IT MNC company in which there should not be any say in politics and all employees must be apolitical. There is no necessity to spread political campaigns supporting ANY parties at all. Personal beliefs should stay within an individual and not into an office environment. > No hikes

Pros

Plenty of opportunity to earn well over $100,000.00 with Standby pay and OT. Plus, mileage reimbursement of $.70 a mile.

Cons

Sometimes tedious work below what I would consider for an experienced FE such as hard drive destruction bin audits and checking in equipment.

Pros

Every group/division can be different in how they treat their employees, but I'd say overall there is very good atmosphere of trust and fairness. There is a strong focus on education, and they reimburse for outside classes taken (Up to 5k/year I think). Benefits are good, and I'd say quite competitive in the market. Good 401K matching (they'll contribute a max of 3% of your 6% or greater). Free drinks in the breakroom. Flexibility to work from home at times. (If you live 50+ miles away from an office you can work full-time from home...policy).

Cons

They don't try to make the workplace anything special (maybe a pool table and arcade game are cliche or gimmicky?). In the 10 years I've worked there, they've given 2 measly %1 cost of living raises (this is the same with most everyone I've spoken to, some don't get any raises). You will not get a substantial raise ever, unless you leave then get rehired on (they will not match offers, better to leave). New employees that you train will make 10 - 20K more than you several years after you hire on (not just me, they do this to all tenured employees). They will give these untrained, less experienced people higher titles (again this is done to everyone not just me). You learn pretty quickly that you're dispensable. The company has billions in cash and they don't re-invest in their employees, just in acquiring new companies and hiring new people that know nothing that you get to train.
