Pros

-Most people are great to work with. -HR is amazing and responsive. Tons of development programs and support. -Work/life balance is nice. They encourage time off when needed. -Innovators in tech. -Encouragement to grow within position.

Cons

There seems to be a lot of finger pointing when something goes wrong. Even when it is minor, things are taken way out of proportion when they don't need to be. When concerns are brought to management, it takes so much time before action is taken. Collaboration and communication are sometimes nonexistent for some teams. Pay could be better. Not bad but also not great.

Pros

Esri pays your health insurance. A few extra holidays that other companies may not offer.

Cons

-Below average pay for California. Already a struggle living out here due to cost of living. -Support services is a mess. We have to bend over backwards for customers always teetering on scope of support. Might as not even have those guidelines anymore if it's a constant battle for internal resources to back you. -Constant releases of software that breaks customer workflows. Too many bugs. Lack of QA. -Whats the point of middle management if all decisions have to come from higher ups that have no understanding of supports day by day. -Unwillingness to let senior employees work from home. And if you do work from home they hold it against you if you want to apply to an internal position. Almost like a thinly veiled threat. -Other teams feel the need to steam roll support sometimes, often leading to fragmented relationships. -Lastly there is way too much work and never enough people.
