Not a bad company

Pros

Great company product, talented employees, good health insurance, and nice office environment.

Cons

Forget if you expect to receive a raise. I have been working full-time for over two years and nothing has happened. They'll tell you that your "bonus" is your raise. Also, preference seems to be given to external candidates than current employees trying to grow professionally within the company. You'll lose more employees if opportunities are not given where deserved.

Pros

The company is a stable and prominent global player with a highly popular product, which provides a sense of security. There haven't been any layoffs in the engineering organizations for a long time, which is a huge plus. The technical challenges are genuinely interesting, and I've had the opportunity to work on some complex problems. The best part, however, is the people. My coworkers are some of the smartest and most hardworking engineers I've ever collaborated with.

Cons

The tech stack is outdated and heavily proprietary, which means the skills you gain aren't easily transferable to other jobs. The code and architecture are extremely complex and convoluted, making it a painful and slow process to fix bugs and build new features. This leads to a lot of defects and impacts development speed. We operate on a long waterfall release cycle, and the company as a whole lacks agility due to its size. Teams often work in silos. Upward mobility can be a real challenge; it seems to be more about politics and appearances than technical merit.
