Pros

Beautiful campus, on-site cafe, bank time, occasional travel in most departments, excellent benefits, great work-life balance, friendly culture. Offer incentives to employees like standing desks, events in the cafe, on-site benefits team, training opportunities, tuition assistance, and holiday breakfast.

Cons

Flat structure, so not much room to grow. Many managers are promoted based on favoritism, not management experience or work ethic. Same standards are not held equally across employees or departments.

Pros

Great culture where managers hire only qualified individual who also fit well with the team. Work ethic expectation surrounds the need to provide the best possible products and services to users and remain a healthy, profitable business. You are expected to push yourself to meet goals and be productive in a team effort. Not all departments and manager have the same level of experience and devotion to upholding the positive Esri culture, but most do. Great work-life balance. Excellent benefits package. Beautiful location. Opportunities for training, education reimbursement, personal development.

Cons

Opportunities to move into new and different roles are limited by the lack of formal career paths. If you don't yet have the experience in a position you'd like to apply for internally you'll have to leave the company to gain experience and training to qualify for that position and come back. Merit increases are meager at best for sales reps. Most sales reps feel undervalued and many long time devoted employees are forced to leave Esri to seek out better paying positions elsewhere.
