Pros

Flexibility Great co-workers On-site gym and healthcare Most employees have their own office Onsite cafes Parental leave Some managers get it. If you have a good one, you’ll be happy and likely stay.

Cons

Legacy employees who need to retire or leave but Goodnight won’t layoff because of his pride of “years of successful growth without layoffs”. Low Salary HR’s rules don’t apply to HR No profit sharing (Used to be double digits, but it’s gone in 2018 - trying to remain competitive!) Top-heavy management Disjointed/lack of vision and focus - always playing catch-up to competitors, not building what customers want with regards to cloud. Low sales numbers = low morale Lack of work flexibility options - Goodnight built this so he wants people to come to work.

Pros

Great co-workers and healthy environment. Benefits are amazing. Demands are reasonable.

Cons

I think this is true for many places right now but post-COVID campus has become mostly remote work. You have to organize with your team when you want to have face-to-face interactions.
