Pros

Decent pay, decent income stock, flexible work arrangements, good benefits, good managers, generally good cross-functional teams.

Cons

Layoffs are an annual practice, and it is unlikely you can find a position internally before you are let go, as the interview process generally takes a couple of months, even for internal hires. Depending on your position, if you work with teams across multiple regions (AMER, EMEA, APAC, LATAM), you won't have the best work-life balance since your meeting times mostly favors US, or the majority.

Pros

Hybrid which is nice, for what the job entails pay is ok I suppose at 60k. Every Wednesday there's food for employees.

Cons

Earlier in the year the frisco office was closed down, so many employees including myself who add living arrangements now have to travel 3 days a week to the downtown office. Which is 45 minutes + with traffic. On top of that the shift times suck as someone who appreciates work life balance. 7 am to 7 pm. I would also say that there are many organizational changes and career growth seems limited.
