      No future

      Pros

      The compensation is at least OK or not too far off compare to others. But if work in Norcal, it is lower than others. Work hours is flexible depending on your manager. Things were great 5+ years ago but that's all history now.

      Cons

      Company on the decline with no light of improvement. WD subsidiary has no future as all future tech investment is in the HGST subsidiary. Content solutions team is a big disaster compare to a year ago and just keeps on getting worse. No more team spirit and employees are being treated like dirt. Engineers were pushed to work day, night and weekends and then all laid off immediately. New SVP in charge since 9 months ago only listens to himself and all politics on growing his power. He has let go 100+ people and brought in his own crew and keeping things to his small circle. Don't join unless you are truly desperate for a job or is a friend of the new person in charge.

      Going in a good direction

      Pros

      Strong executive leadership team that does a good job of being transparent and a lot of people really support our company president. And we have unlimited vacation!

      Cons

      Perks are very unevenly distributed across the organizations. Some groups get company lunches regularly or dinners when they work late. Others get nothing. One org had a potluck for the Christmas party, another had a full catered meal and rented a karaoke machine. Also the 401K matching isn't very good and neither is the health insurance
