Pros

Superb benefits! Exciting challenges & work (when you’re not having to waste time creating presentation decks to update execs)

Cons

Working for the big tech companies isn’t all that it’s cracked up to be. I’ve worked at tech companies of all ranges for decades and have never seen a company so ridden with bureaucracy. So much politics. Many managers only care about themselves & there’s a bunch of entitled jerks (mostly white men) walking around everywhere like they are gifts to earth…

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
