Pros
Onsite cafeteria is nice, provides free lunch and breakfast daily.
Cons
Promotion is slow. It takes 7 years to get promotion to senior level whereas industry leaders in technology industry takes 4-5 years. Old technology. Slow adoption of public cloud technologies. There's no target bonus here. Raises are sub inflation level here in Natick. The average is around 2-3% this year, according to anonymous surveys and my manager's info. However, folks in India got around 10%+ raises (good for them). The company treats PhD graduates as people with 5+ years of experience. This doesn't reflect reality, as anyone with 5+ years of full time work experience beats PhD's, hands down. There are too many folks from adjacent organizations who only show relevance by nit picking developers work, yet, don't contribute to product development (think software process engineering, for instance, which is a misnomer since folks there don't develop software, yet they come with new rules for developers that only look good on paper, ie., the process about solving main branch blockers in 2 hours). For folks that doesn't understand, this is an organization that nitpicks developers on how forms on Confluence, Jira tickets are filled, when they can only be filled manually. It is super sad how this is even a performance metric.
