Pros

If you have a good manager, you are given a lot of time and leeway to solve problems. Generally respectful of your time outside of work and allows for flexible hours.

Cons

Manager-type roles are more valued than any developer role. That can cause bad managers to lead to exceedingly and needless stress. They have exceedingly bad pay relative to the industry.

Thank you for sharing this perspective. For compensation we price every role in the business individually and every employee is eligible to participate in the company incentive program.

Pros

- Mission - Work life balance - Pay - Modernization of the workplace

Cons

- Every year benefits are reduced with terrible and tone deaf justifications. - Added benefits tend only to benefit new employees. - Perception that the company does not value long term employees (suspension of defined benefit program) - Poor ESPP discount - Lack of transparency on how AEIP bonus is calculated - Workflow tools are still extremely cumbersome after years of promises to fix them - Lack of enforcement of hybrid work policy. Many people never come in and are never spoken to about it.
