Pros

401k match 3 weeks PTO 1,000$ annual wellness plan (covers everything from gaming consoles to gym memberships) Bonus Restricted stock Discounted stock purchasing Beautiful office located in the CODA building in downtown Atlanta. Snacks/ coffee etc. in office for free. Management is very understanding and coworkers are always willing to help. Autodesk is a company who wants to help their employees grow and will spend money on continuing education and certifications. Management also is very flexible with WFH- they do not ask/enforce anyone to be in office. Procedures and policy’s and well documented- excellent on boarding. No meetings after 12 on Fridays!

Cons

Con with being located in downtown is parking costs. Working through many different time zones can be difficult to coordinate at times.
