Pros

Excellent benefits. Good product with lots of potential. Probably still a decent place to work if you aren't in support.

Cons

Working in support used to be a great place. You had time to follow up and work with customers, and they weren't focused on Metrics. They shifted the focus to Metrics and after laying off about half the support center and the workload was unchanged. Instead of focusing on solving problems you were just fighting fires. Lots of tools available to do the job, but many of them have a lot of use ability issues. There is definitely a clique within the company that gets promoted and advanced faster if you know and work with the right people. Morale was low when I departed and turnover seemed to be accelerating.

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.
