Pros

Incredibly intelligent people to work with. Very intense projects, great opportunity for learning. Relatively easy to move within technical functions, especially if you're a mechanical engineer. Great work/life balance, depending on the function you're in.

Cons

Pay is not competitive. Lay-offs are becoming too common place. Competitive to the point of back-stabbing in some groups, not all groups.

Pros

Work from home, flexibility, paternal leave policy, pension plan

Cons

Pay is low and has not kept up with inflation. Leadership is only DEI hires, and they do not seem to understand the actual work being done. They are making life miserable for employees by adding unnecessary KPI's and performance tracking to make a name for themselves within the senior leadership. No loyalty for employees, they will let you go in the blink of an eye if the business struggles.
