Pros

Engaging work, on paper the mission of the company is good

Cons

Every few months we either get a new manager in the chain, or the chain is rearranged. Significant management are all external hires that do not understand our workflow or even what we do. You can't sail to an island if your captain doesn't k ow what an island is.

Pros

- Mission - Work life balance - Pay - Modernization of the workplace

Cons

- Every year benefits are reduced with terrible and tone deaf justifications. - Added benefits tend only to benefit new employees. - Perception that the company does not value long term employees (suspension of defined benefit program) - Poor ESPP discount - Lack of transparency on how AEIP bonus is calculated - Workflow tools are still extremely cumbersome after years of promises to fix them - Lack of enforcement of hybrid work policy. Many people never come in and are never spoken to about it.
