Pros

The business is a good one to get into .

Cons

Very poor company , make lots of promises on bonus but never fulfill them , expectation is the work 9 hrs and go home and work some more . If you do some side work for your own knowledge it is discouraged completely . They give u rsu ( restricted stock unit ) every year as part of bonus and only 33 % gets vested , if you dont obey what they say they will let you go and keep the stock . They lawyers in this company are very smart and cover all the grounds so no one can sue them .SO BE VERY CAREFULL

Pros

A very distinct culture of gritty, brilliant individuals. Very generous compensation. Lean org structure with access to the senior most leaders.

Cons

Not a company for those who aren't self starters. You will thrive here if you are diligent and independent.

Pros

Giant international corporation with unlimited resources. Multiple locations around the country and the globe with tons of jobs that are open for internal transfer (with some considerations). Generally high pay range.

Cons

Giant international corporations treat you as an unlimited resource. They use "Unlimited PTO" model for Sick and Vacation time, which I feel is a misnomer and a disingenuous concept as a whole. Unrealistic fixation on making employees use AI with no clear plan or direction on how it should happen.
