Pros

Excellent work-life balance with top-notch benefits. The management team really seems to care about their employees. You may have to work late/from home sometimes when the company needs you to, but that is balanced with the ability to work from home when YOU need to; its a fair trade.

Cons

Some red tape to go through to do parts of your job, as with all large companies, but its nothing that can't be easily learned if you have the desire to.

Pros

They have decent pay and great health benefits. My coworkers were very nice.

Cons

Horrible work/life balance. They expect you to be available in the middle of the night for deployments, as well as after hours for support issues, with no compensation. They have a very poor separation process, I had to repeatedly contact them to get my termination packet (for COBRA and 401K info), and I'm having trouble getting my 401K money because they still have me as active in their system. I was there all year, but because I left ONE DAY before the year-end bonus was announced (last year they didn't give it until March, but this year it was in December, which of course I would have stayed for if I'd known), they refused to give it to me. They're just like every other multi-billion dollar company, they don't give a damn about their employees.

I am sorry to hear about some of the issues you described with work/life balance. We have made many strides to make sure we have the proper support around the clock to avoid overworking individuals, but we still have some work to do. You can be sure that it has been and will continue to be a priority going forward. I can tell you for certain that people are priority for my team, and we are holding our leadership accountable for building a place where people can feel comfortable, thrive and grow. We will be sure to take in your feedback around the separation process so that it is as smooth as possible. - Mohit Kapoor, CTO

Pros

I've read all the reviews. Final analysis: Those who wish to achieve WILL. We do not work in an easy industry and therein lies the challenge. What *makes* this job so rewarding is navigating through complex rules, regulations and systems - and finding a way to accomplish the goal. Creating something for our sales team to sell is our job and the strides we have taken in the last three years are nothing short of incredible. Advice: If you are not willing to think, work and produce - there are jobs elsewhere. If you want a stable career that you can steer TU is a good place to be.

Cons

Cons is a four letter word.
