Pros

Decent salaries, industry standard benefits. Good and knowledgable co-workers. Storage is a good industry to be in.

Cons

There is a good amount of non-performers in every level(engineers to vp/svp). May be about 30-40 percent. Good engineers/managers pay for it ( in terms of no raises, no rsu etc. You will be surprised to see how long people who are not productive are stuck to. It will take some non trivial effort to make the company go in the right direction.

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.
