Pros

Can't thing of any after 3 weeks of work

Cons

I have been an employee for three week and have not been able to access the benefits website or get any information about benefits. This is the absolute worse onboarding experience I have ever had!!!! The only onboarding for new employees is a 4 hour presentation (phone meeting) on how wonderful HP is and how great the founders were. The company's treatment of me certainly hasn't proven their claims. The job I am now working doesn't match the job description - much lower level. Coffee - the company refuses (so I've been told) to purchase coffee creamer for their employee break rooms. They only have the cheapest level of powdered creamer. I might have been spoiled at ALL of my previous employers but for a renowned company, this is ridiculous!!!

Pros

Great work/life balance Competitive Pay A players Manager support Global company Good bonuses

Cons

Goals change so frequently sometimes it felt as though all the hard work was for nothing. Competitive environment so you need to show your value outside of your role to get assistance and build a brand/ name for yourself. Internal opportunities "require" referrals and building rapport with that team. Otherwise your application is ignored. Salary raises are not great so negotiate your incoming salary well. Your direct manager shapes your experience, not a con necessarily. Poor managers or shift in management can impact your experience heavily.
