Pros

The people you work with and see day to day are nice, friendly, and great to work with. Work isn't demanding with unreasonable deadlines and people are reasonable to work with, so work/life balance is good. Very LGBT friendly.

Cons

Even just a few months ago, this would have been a VERY positive review. But after the Veritas buyout, the company has become increasingly a worse and worse place to work at each month. The company no longer cares about creating high quality long-term products and only seems to care about how to get something done as cheaply as possible as fast as possible. There is very little to no room for career growth as an engineer here anymore in most teams due to this as well. Even people overqualified for a promotion are made to jump through every hoop imaginable to get it. Even with high profits, they are also still willing to lay off employees so that they can hire cheaper outsourced labor, so job security is very weak as well - unless you're underpaid.
