Pros

The compensation is very good Some great coworkers

Cons

This is the worst computer I have ever used for work. Everyone seems to be having tech problems Returning to the office is awful. We're a global company so the office is mostly people commuting into an office to do video calls. Many people don't have any in-person meetings. The office itself is loud and unpleasant. There are no amenities. Leadership does not seem to understand or care. The company is so large that when there are problems, people throw their hands up in the air and say, "I guess there's nothing we can do"

Pros

Respectable company, working with smart people for the most people.

Cons

Huge company, can be hard to navigate, almost impossible to get fired so good workers pick up slack for bad works. They need to trim fat faster and better
