      Pros

      Diversity of the workforce is impressive, philanthropic commitment is excellent. Free oatmeal and coffee are a nice bennie. Company is very open about sharing company strategy and performance metrics. 2 hours free electric vehicle charging per day. Decent onsite cafeteria. Severance benefits are fairly generous.

      Cons

      Open cubicle environment for most workers is hell. Initiative is not especially appreciated or rewarded, despite messaging to the contrary. Management appears to care, until they fail to meet market expectations, in which case even high performing employees are instantly expendable.Hierarchical to the max. When it came time to RIF in order to recover from a failure to meet market guidance, it was older employees who were axed--even ones who'd just received great performance reviews.

      Pros

      Pay is pretty decent and bonuses are pretty good. Bonuses are only guaranteed if company does well. The gym is really nice. Can have flex work life balance depending on your boss.

      Cons

      Past acquisitions have been a complete disaster. Upper management does not know what they are doing. They tend to play more politics than actually trying to execute. Strategy going forward is interesting but the execution is lacking. Not top notch caliber talent at the company. Lot of politics at the company that impedes people from getting things done and executing.
