Pros

Great company with excellent benefits, ability to work as an independent person using company facilities.

Cons

Vacation time needs to be updated as everyone get 12 days per year from the start and if you work there 10, 20 years you still get 12 days. Everyone from entry level to CEO of the company gets the same vacation time.

Pros

Great culture. Smart, well-intentioned people. True "feedback culture". Excellent compensation and benefits. Excellent physical facilities. Leader in selling design tools and software to building designers, construction firms, architects, and companies who "Make Things". Specialist in small and medium businesses ~ that is where we excel. Leader in cloud solutions. Extremely stable senior leadership who wants to know what you think.

Cons

Business is business ~ it is not personal. Performance, as an individual and a team, is taken extremely seriously, and this can be harsh. Quite a bit of change ~ verging on too much. Some do not like the "San Francisco centricity" of the corporation ~ it can feel more like "California is the world" rather than "we are a global company".
