Pros

Some staff benefits are good. Some teams are good with good managers.

Cons

Some of the newly promoted team lead or managers are so incompetent. The manager not only lacks the understanding of his/her team's own work, but merely follows the punchy words from the upper management, micro-manages people's emails and words, and have different moods on different days. The manager complains of the team not understanding his/her inferior ideas, yet complain people not listening to him/her. The people who complain how bad the department is, as it turns out, are the exact reason why the department culture is so bad. Some offices have so many useless processes. People just get busy at playing the Lego of processes, achieving little of business value.

Pros

Great benefits, amazing office space, salary is fair

Cons

Force feed AI, large management chains create bureaucracy, lay offs every spring so C suite can get big bonuses. You have unlimited PTO but good luck using it, the only people that advance play politics and don’t actually know what they’re doing. Hard work and expertise is rewarded with minimal bonuses and absorbing more work from laid off peers. Leaving was the best decision I’ve made in years.
