      Pros

      4 weeks vacation for those with PhD from day 1. Decently competent professionals.

      Cons

      The company on a downward spiral due to incompetent and arrogant management. Micromanagement from headquarters and reporting is downright ridiculous.

      Pros

      Great benefits, hybrid & remote roles, great colleagues to work with. Great vacation /time off. Helpful colleagues

      Cons

      Reorganizations (roughly 3 years), IT roles dwindling in North America(moving to India), teams can get very silo-ed, “not my role” = not helping you (when you are looking for answers/assistance), currently seeing a lot of movement out of New Jersey (roles moving to other parts of the country), some organizational charts can be confusing, huge organization(can be difficult at times pinpointing the exact team you may need to work with)
