Pros

Salary and holidays are great. Campus is convenient. Product has always been the unique selling point for true engineers.

Cons

Past years a lot of incompetent people were promoted also to higher management positions. Powerplay and growing their kingdoms has become an objective trumping company and customer value even. Micromanaging without any strategic vision and selective (ab)use of data to report out makes for a very toxic environment where management cliques promote each other.

Pros

Location is good and near freeway, they make a crucial technology for the world to function

Cons

Toxic environment. Selective enforcement, antisemitic DEI culture, tattle tale rat snitch employees, managers play favorites, managers move the goal post after you were supposed to earn a salary increase. too many foreigners in management and not enough americans. DEI is a joke and is run by a racist black women. Company will burn you and punish you for problems someoen else created and punish you for it despite no power to fix the issue yourself.
