Pros

Good position in the industry. Great people. Great products.

Cons

Management needs to stop chasing stock prices and actually care about customers and employees. Get your priorities straight then profits will follow. Constant layoffs and reorganization won’t help. Why do we break down businesses into silos again after integrating BUs?

Pros

- Easy commute if you live north of Seattle/Bellevue - Decent cafeteria - Decent compensation

Cons

- The level of apathy amongst colleagues is off the charts. Many people are simply coasting and collecting a paycheck. When you try to be a team player and pick up the slack, you simply become a target for blame. - Due to the extremely lax "return to office" policy, the office often feels quite empty when there is plenty of work to be done. Being onsite M-F often leads to more work with little support. - There is a culture of public shaming, with several meetings every week dedicated to project leads targeting individuals to make up for their own lack of technical understanding.
