Pros

Interesting problems, smart people to work with, Core values are largely practiced well, pretty good compensation and benefits, company has good reputation for your next job, decent bonus structure, lots of food and drink

Cons

The company is losing its way and not valuing employees by pushing out experienced staff to lower costs, development processes are archaic, decision making is slow but not for the consensus-building reasons they say, no equity, when the core values aren't followed they're mutilated, no respect for the skills you have other than maybe what they think they hired you for, opaque review process that is sometimes used abusively for political purposes, key decisions are only made by trusted old-timers and if you're not one you can end your career quickly by attempting improvements, remote work policy is absurd

Pros

Excellent benefits, work environment was very modern and well thought out, CEO was inspiring and communicated the vision very well.

Cons

From a sales perspective you had to be on the outside team or it wasn't a sales job. If you were willing to stick it out with low salary for 5-7 years you might get a chance to move into a outside role, otherwise it was very limited from a growth track into new challenges and higher earnings potential.

Pros

The place is very stable, stress is low, pay and benefits are decent (not great). Lots of very technical and interesting people.

Cons

Barely competent mid-level management, strong hierarchy. No career growth. Process heavy at the cost of innovation. 20th century style management.
