Pros

The smartest, most supportive people you'll ever work for

Cons

A ruthless, publically held company who won't hesitate to lay off people to show a quarterly profit. It doesn't matter what your last performance review was. FTR, I was not laid off, but as a manager I had to lay off people who did not deserve it.

Pros

* Good starting pay * Other employees were great * Usually flexible if you need time off * Good benefits * Most managers were very willing to work with you for whatever you needed

Cons

* Executives are focused on chasing short term gains * Frequently told as an SRE to focus on new products over the stability and performance of existing offerings * Team was understaffed for all but a few months of time * Company seems to be moving a large number of jobs from US to central/south AM.
