      Pros

      Health insurance( 100% paid for by Esri) No official layoffs Holidays Profit share

      Cons

      Pay: Widespread underpayment, no geographic pay adjustments (ironically, for a GIS company) PTO: Extremely limited only 10 days until year 5 Leadership & Culture: Toxic environment, especially for those who are not white, heterosexual men In-Office Mandates: 3 days/week for most, 5 days for new hires, with active attendance tracking Complacency: Long-tenured employees (15+ years) reinforce a culture resistant to change; the company feels stuck in the past Corporate Travel: Slow, bureaucratic, and combative approval process Sick Time: Insufficient time off currently a big point of employee pushback
