Pros

Strong engineering culture, high technical standards. Very challenging and interesting work on large-scale distributed systems. Smart, capable colleagues. Good compensation and benefits. Strong brand and resume value.

Cons

Very high workload and frequent time zone overlap, which hurts work-life balance. Organizational complexity. Cross-team dependencies often create friction and delays.

Pros

Great people. Good benefits. Remote work.

Cons

Trying not to be "sour grapes" as I was laid off yesterday. But, it's worth noting that in 7 years, the job got worse. Year after year. If it weren't for Revit & AutoCad subscription renewals, the AECO story at Autodesk would be very different. Promoting shiny baubles at AU or on LinkedIn while front line/customer facing employees bear the brunt of a patchwork of disconnected back end systems where data is impossible to find, a pricing structure based on fiction that clients hate, and an out of touch leadership team. Yearly changes in sales methodologies, bloated process, etc makes for a challenging work environment. Writing was on the wall 3 years ago- no more RSU's, no back fill to lost positions, more work, less chance to achieve success.
