Pros

## Pros for my team * Manager that advocates for us to executives vs focusing on politics and self-promotion/ladder-climbing at our expense. * Capable, friendly coworkers and cooperative, collaborative, environment. * Manager works to accommodate what you would prefer to work on (back-end/front-end, etc.). * You're given "ownership" over the apps that you work on and have a large say in the work. * Team is open to your ideas including changes to processes, new tool adoption, etc. ## Pros for company * Pretty good benefits (health insurance offerings, employee stock purchase plan (15% price reduction), RSUs, PTO, paid paternity/maternity leave and FMLA). * More visibility/accessibility to execs than some other companies (townhalls with Q&A).

Cons

* Pointless rollback of long-term COVID-era WFH accommodations simply because C-suite wanted to and could despite their best profits ever. * Execs making broad decisions at too high of a level instead of allowing team leads to manage as they see fit. * Despite decent visibility/access to execs, its still the same corporate-speak bs and ultimately its all about the money and the execs will do whatever they want. * Like all major businesses now, focus is always on exponential quarterly growth with no long-term vision. * As a hardware company and not an SaaS company, their IT/Security teams do not have mature security enablement with proper exceptions that software developers typically need. This makes company laptop not very conducive to developing software. With the general approach just blocking everything and then taking requests for exceptions (which may not be granted), you're constantly fighting with your environment, changes to it, etc. which is obnoxious when you just want to focus on the actual work and sometimes results in proceeding with worse solutions because they are the only way work around. * Roller-coaster/waves of good times followed by mass layoffs. * Large effort by execs to push job positions overseas, with a massive focus and majority of resources given to the Hyderabad site.
