Pros

Excellent benefits, laid-back work environment, freedom to venture new technology, friendly people(most of the time!), NO SURPRISES!( you'd definitely know before getting fired!!), free tshirts on any occasion, perks/employee discounts.

Cons

There's a veiled favoritism in every corner of the office, most people have been here for 10+years and they brought along friends/families who gets the upper hand during promotions/training/career advice. Some departments are overlooked by the upper managements and the achievements by some are going unnoticed. I hated the infamous "3 things you'd like to improve about yourself"- whats the point of telling my desired areas of improvement if someone who is already bombarded with work gets priority over me?!

Thank you. Although we've been in business since 1990, over half of our nearly 4000 employees have been hired within the last 2 years. We have a very popular employee referral program which at times involves friends, relatives, former co-workers, etc. Knowing someone may help being introduced to the company but it doesn't provide priority with any employment decisions. All employees are expected to perform on their own merit; and advancement, training, etc. should have no correlation to who you know. Thanks very much for this feedback.

Pros

Remote work was nice. Pay and benefits were decent.

Cons

- Toxic, toxic, toxic - Zero work life balance - Lots of back stabbing going on. Too many management changes. Everyone has to claw for things in a negative way to get anywhere. - Bro culture and a company founder who prays and preaches at company meetings? That should NEVER happen. - No inclusivity. They say DEI is important but when the leaders are praying and seemingly right wing that doesn't reflect. - "Great Place to Work" is a total scam. They basically make you do it, talk about it constantly, remind you to take the surveys, even say how to rate. It's disingenuous. - Over-worked and ran PM's too thin, then when you get too burned out to do your job effectively you're not supported. I was running multiple projects during the day and had another project that required 12 am, 2am meetings as it was an Asian customer. I had no balance, no sleep, zero support. Instead of mitigating it, they wrote me up because I forgot something trivial (so trivial I don't even remember what it was). I was so stressed my hair literally fell out! I was so grateful to have another company headhunt me so that I could quit. TOXIC!
