Pros

Great talent, good people, competitive compensation and benefits. When the subject of conversation is what we're working on and how we're doing our jobs, people are motivated and creative. Unfortunately, the company no longer values those qualities.

Cons

Morale is poor and the future is shaky. Everyone has to watch their back. Do not recommend to new hires. Employees cannot trust anyone in upper management. CEO uses silly words like "transformation" what he means is major layoffs and outsourcing to India. No innovation anymore, just working and reworking of old technology.

Pros

Amongst the top companies in the data storage industry = company stability.

Cons

If you'd ask me a year or 2 ago, I would have given the company 5 stars. But, as with most tech companies now, they've started to follow the trend of return to office, regardless of logic. There's little to no room for exceptions and the company would rather sacrifice productivity regardless if they know the hardships for people living in metros (one way commute to the NY or SJC office can take 2 hours one way!) - that and there's no commuter benefits. You have to pay out of pocket and live in fear of not receiving your bonus if you miss the "thrive together" quarterly requirements.
