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".

Viscid tricks with immigrant employees

Anonymous employee

Pros

Anything that can keep up with the cons.

Cons

They used their position of power to get skilled foreign employees move to the U.S. working for below-market salaries, with the promise of a permanent residency sponsorship they systematically delayed with various excuses. Please note that this was performed in complete legality, yet of course still being incredibly viscid, unprofessional, and totally not respectful of both personal and professional lives of inexperienced/weak immigrant employees who trust the company at first. Beware!
