Pros

Very good focus on diversity and inclusion. Excellent mentoring opportunities. Great place for new hires from college.

Cons

A "chapter 3" vision needs to be established. The hypervisor is fading. Not the best cloud strategy in place.

Pros

-In the US, we have 22 holidays, 10 sick days, 15 education days, 5 volunteer days, 15 vacation days, and 5 covid days. That's about 3 times as many days of as any other job that I've had... -My manager is kind and focused on helping me. The culture of kindness paired with getting things done is extremely effective. -There is a specific and measurable process for promotions and career progression. -Remote work!

Cons

-Pay is less than comparable top tech companies like Google, and Facebook. But I'll take the time off and healthy culture any day! -Company seems like it's playing catchup in parts of the services/platform market, so the stock isn't growing quickly...
