      Pros

      Work life balance can be guaranteed, most people are nice and friendly except a few management stuffs. Almost no pressure on your assigned tasks. Company vacations(supplimentary to paid annual leaves and paid sick leave days)

      Cons

      Tedious and redundant processes in daily work but that's common in this industry. Old techniques used in product. People working here for long time generally has no motivation to learn new technologies. Very hard and slow to promote. Average pay but no RSU or options or espp plans offered.

      Hi there, thanks for taking the time to write down your thoughts and experiences. Good to hear that you're having a healthy work life balance and that you enjoy working with the team. However, it's a pity to hear that you're not completely happy with the processen in your daily work and the lack of motivation around you. We recommend discussing this with your HR manager, as he or she is in the right position to pick this up. Moreover, upper management is active on this platform too, so your review will be seen by the right people. Wishing you all the best with your career!

      Pros

      The people in non- upper management roles that work there are fantastic. Great sense of community onsite and the culture champions are consistently looking for ways to make work life better.

      Cons

      Very poor communication on the strategy for the business unit. Leadership publicly promotes innovation and new ideas to be presented but then those ideas are shot down or penalized in private by current upper management. The business unit leadership says that don't want excuses for project delays but will then decide to do 3 major layoffs in the first two quarters with no transition plan, no support for gap in resources and no expectations to delayed progress.
