Pros

Brand name Company stock has been promising so far

Cons

No work life balance. Managers don’t care about employees work satisfaction. Most people you work with here are extremely arrogant because of the brand and founder reputation even though they are not the smartest kind . Mediocre work and salaries. No one cares about your career growth or your well-being , all they care is you keep the labor on . Many folks esp. those who have stayed here for most part of their career would tell you that this is the ‘ultimate place to work’ , but they have been brainwashed over the years and have been made to believe that their work is central to the uplifting of human race. They slog without complain , few don’t buy into this and quit quietly . PS: My opinion and experience only

Pros

We work with geniuses - in every department, We create innovative products that thrill our customers and create new product categories - who else can say that?

Cons

ZERO ZERO ZERO work/life balance. Execs have been saying for YEARS that they understand and will make it better. But in actuality, it gets worse every year! It is obviously top management LIP SERVICE because if they meant it, they could fix it tomorrow. They have hundreds of BILLIONS in the bank. If they REALLY cared about employee work/life balance, they could bring aboard the right number of folks to make that issue dissolve. Sick of hearing the lies. Just don't lie about wanting to fix it, when they clearly DON'T care
