Pros

The toilets flushed, and leaving at the end of the day brought great pleasure.

Cons

The Santa Clara NOC has the most pathetic management I has ever encountered. From a management perspective there was little control over anything. Did not understand why they even had one. The team consisted of a group of guys who hung out together prior to working there. Anyone hired was an outsider. They throw a bunch of stuff at you with little to no perpetration. The guy training me constantly reminded me that I may not be there that long. He was right I left only after about 5 weeks. I had a family to support, and no other opportunity. It did not matter I was not going to take the ridicule from the staff there any longer.

Pros

I work with diverse and supportive people. Teams and leaders demonstrate the will to respond to worker needs with kindness and respect. On the operational level, teams are highly flexible and adapt quickly to changes when provided proper support. Work-life balance is high priority for the people I interact with.

Cons

The company has difficulty holding on to talent in tech fields since a good chunk of the focus has to be allocated to art/design and production instead. CEOs come and go every few years, leading to instability. For some teams, the process remains overly complex and inefficient because of misalignments between leadership/engineering and ops team users. No formal humanist policy around AI & robotics yet.
