Pros

Pros are different depending on what team you are on. Many of the general pros are the benefits: great health care, vacation time, etc. My team is leaninent on what hours we work throughout the day, we just need to get our job done and/or get 40 hours a week. Most of us work 45-55 hours/week though. Low turnover, people do love this company and stay there forever. Great friendly work environment.

Cons

Have to work from office, cannot work from home. Hard to move up in company because people stay there so long. Harder to move up if you're not willing to move to the corporate office in Redlands, CA. On some teams it feels like the managers don't listen to their direct reports and only care about what their director is hounding them on at that specific time.

Pros

Esri pays your health insurance. A few extra holidays that other companies may not offer.

Cons

-Below average pay for California. Already a struggle living out here due to cost of living. -Support services is a mess. We have to bend over backwards for customers always teetering on scope of support. Might as not even have those guidelines anymore if it's a constant battle for internal resources to back you. -Constant releases of software that breaks customer workflows. Too many bugs. Lack of QA. -Whats the point of middle management if all decisions have to come from higher ups that have no understanding of supports day by day. -Unwillingness to let senior employees work from home. And if you do work from home they hold it against you if you want to apply to an internal position. Almost like a thinly veiled threat. -Other teams feel the need to steam roll support sometimes, often leading to fragmented relationships. -Lastly there is way too much work and never enough people.
