Pros

Depends on which group, I was in a very good one, with very professional and skillful people, learned a lot, and part of the time had the opportunity to implement interesting things. Had a good amount of (paid) days off .

Cons

It can be so dynamic, and the whole group might change to the worse (might happen anywhere, but this is a highly dynamic place in comparison to others). Bad conditions in comparison to other global companies (including salary, gifts, etc.). The company as a whole prefers to hire a continually a great amount of entry level engineers and doesn't care much about retaining the good experienced ones.

Pros

The core responsibilities offer solid experience, and many team members are dedicated, talented, and great to work with.

Cons

Lack of HR Support: The company lacks a safe, objective framework for employee feedback. When legitimate management issues were raised to HR, no corrective action was taken. Instead, it resulted in direct retaliation from leadership, which was left unaddressed by the organization. Significant Under-Market Pay: Compensation is well below industry standards for similar scopes of work. To give context, transitioning into a comparable role at a different company yielded a 37% increase in base pay. Flawed & Inaccurate Sales Compensation: The commission and incentive structures for the sales organization are unnecessarily convoluted. This complexity frequently leads to errors in commission payouts, causing widespread frustration among sellers. Notably, these calculation mistakes are consistently detrimental to the employee and rarely seem to resolve in the seller's favor. Siloed "HQ-Centric" Culture: There is a heavy disconnect between corporate headquarters and regional teams. The culture feels highly insular, creating an "in-group" dynamic where those outside of headquarters have very limited visibility, influence, or opportunities for career progression.
