Pros

Good life - work balance on positions that don't require direct interaction with customers. Good job for students and people without professional experiance.

Cons

No oporunities for career development - in 2012 company was employing more than 10k people worldwide, but career was growing only for very small number of employees (less than 1%). Sallary much below market average. Management doesn't listen emploees feedback. Work of Senior Management is good evaluated by employees, however lower management (business units directors, engineering leaders, team leaders and supervisors) are not following senior management vision - this demotivates and destroys morale of ordinary emploees. This disonance caused a significant lost of very valuable emploees (very experianced) over last 2 years!!!

Pros

- Mission - Work life balance - Pay - Modernization of the workplace

Cons

- Every year benefits are reduced with terrible and tone deaf justifications. - Added benefits tend only to benefit new employees. - Perception that the company does not value long term employees (suspension of defined benefit program) - Poor ESPP discount - Lack of transparency on how AEIP bonus is calculated - Workflow tools are still extremely cumbersome after years of promises to fix them - Lack of enforcement of hybrid work policy. Many people never come in and are never spoken to about it.
