Pros

- Inspiring products and mission - High performing teams - Managers seem to like their jobs --> positive work culture

Cons

- Several programs are behind schedule --> stressful work environment - Programs are consistently re-organized - Senior Management does not listen to employee feedback - Human Resources is actively working against you. .. example (1): HR created a new tenure requirement to achieve promotion. They did this DURING the promotion cycle and made it "for management eyes only". Then they did not consistently apply the rules of their own (new) tenure requirement. The result was a lot of wasted effort and failed promises. .. example (2): HR also resets the tenure requirement when you take a on a new role. Combining this with the constant program re-orgs, it is very difficult to grow your career at this company. They actively funnel you into a highly constrained role with little opportunity for advancement.
