Pros

Most colleagues that are below senior level were good to work with. Salaries and benefits are decent, but they were not very competitive compared to software engineers working at other companies.

Cons

The politics and culture in this company were horrible. I have worked with many senior level workers and I could count on one hand the number of good workers that were a pleasure to work with. The rest of the senior workers were only looking out for themselves. They micromanaged and made you work long hours. Employees in this companies love meetings, but they could not effectively run meetings. Most of the meetings I've attended were a waste of time. The other meetings were considered effective because the attendees were not responsive to instant messaging or emails.

Pros

There are great people, some who are truly wonderful.

Cons

So many org changes, restructuring events, annual layoffs, constantly being asked to do more with less, changes without data to support.
