Pros

The larger the organization, the more likely to enjoy someone you work with.

Cons

For an organization that prides itself on working parents and parental leave, I am astounded by the lack of respect for boundaries while on leave. The requests and expectations to check emails, respond to calls and meetings, as well as the lack of organization around an individual out on leave. I joined Lenovo with hopes of being able to enjoy my family and family time and I've learned that it is truly dependent on your direct team rather than the legal and company guidelines put in place by the HR Partners, which keep in mind is separate from the several HR teams. This negative experience has truly molded my entire opinion and respect for the company.

Pros

Absolutely love my team, people, culture, and work events. Genuinely I can't think of any cons. 3 days in-person, 2 days remote. Best work life balance ever, and great pay. Even intern benefits are amazing

Cons

None that I can think of

Pros

Interesting work, good benefits, talented colleagues

Cons

Terrible manager behavior, terrible work-life balance, with no recourse or support for employees. I joined and quickly found that the ED I reported to had no experience in the area he oversaw, would not listen to anyone who had experience, was mean to his team members, and set wildly unrealistic expectations without any clear direction or consistency. Bullying, meanness and pointless criticism were the norm, while leadership was completely lacking. And if you work on the Digital Transformation team, expect to spend from 8PM-11PM at night and early morning on calls, with little regard for sleep or work-life balance. The worst part was finding out that the HR team was already well aware of all these problems with my ED (the two other managers under him quit), and the leadership team had no intention of making any changes. So disappointing.
