Pros

I've been working at Esri for nearly 10 years and genuinely enjoy both my work and the collaboration with my colleagues. The team is friendly, and the company fosters a positive and supportive culture. I appreciate the job stability and the excellent work-life balance Esri provides. Additionally, the ability to bank hours allows many employees to earn beyond their annual salary.

Cons

The pay is lower compared to other tech companies, but the work-life balance and positive, non-toxic environment make it worthwhile. However, Redlands is becoming less safe, less affordable, and noticeably dirtier. Additionally, some coworkers take advantage of the generous work-life balance.
