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

The product security organization has a very ideal work-life balance. The culture is strong on ownership and trust. There is a good sense of pride and collaboration across teams with low level of politics and high sense of "the project is the boss". Compensation is good for the roles. Merit increases and promotions are mostly transparent, but can vary from manager to manager.

Cons

Leadership direction can be whiplash at some times. Some initiatives feel directionless, while others feel misguided. Leadership does respond to push back and listens to employees though, but it often feels like managing up.
