Pros

Every day I get up and can't wait to come to work and it's been 5 years. It's the most exciting and diversified job I have ever held. Huge talent here at CA but you would not know it because it's an ego free company. Amazing t environment with a common goal - to make a difference in the world. CA is a company that cares about every employee no matter what level you are. If you want to be promoted there is no one that will hold you back. You are encouraged if you want to move to another role. I feel that the amazing environment starts at the top with the CEO. He is a great mentor to everyone here. This is a company where family is first. Most companies will say that but CA means it. We are encouraged here, we are rewarded here, we are family here!

Cons

I honestly have nothing negative to say.

Wow - thanks so much for sharing the many reasons why CA is a fantastic place to be! We're immensely proud of our culture and the employees who create a wonderful, ego-free environment focused on growth and collaboration. Our recent career panel, "Moving from Early to Experienced at CA", gave senior team members the chance to share how they worked their way up from junior roles. So inspiring! We could not be more delighted that we've created a place where people soar! Thanks again for taking the time to share this awesome feedback. - Shrina
