Pros

coherent strategy and compelling vision

Cons

layoffs and cut remote work options in half in a region with some of the worst traffic in the world. I face 240 hours a year commuting. Others face double that. All to satisfy the (few) extroverts who miss the "energy" of a crowded workplace. fully remote competitors will have a field day poaching employees. this may ne by design; f5 hasn't been hiring technical employees in the usa for years.

Pros

* I enjoyed the collaborative team culture. Everyone was supportive and willing to help each other. * The work-life balance was good, and the overall working environment was relatively low stress. * I had opportunities to work on large-scale enterprise products and collaborate with cross-functional teams.

Cons

* One area I felt could be improved was compensation growth. As my responsibilities and technical skills expanded, I was looking for opportunities that offered stronger career and compensation progression.
