Pros

Good work-life balance (depending on the team and position) and relatively decent pay, flexible work hour, promotion of individual leadership, opportunity to move within the organization, free speech with people in any level

Cons

Uneven quality of work among employees, too much promotion of individual leadership without clear and aligned goal setting (leading to wasted effort), random and seemingly unfair promotion of the people who are putting great effort in networking instead of working

Pros

Decent starting salary, good benefits, generous PTO

Cons

1% raises forever. Last promotion I got to Principal had no raise but a bump in bonus percentage. Now they are giving kids 8-12% raises and they have less than 5 yrs. Once you hit about 5 yrs you will get the 1% a yr and be pigeon holed into a specific job. Then good luck trying to change.
