Pros

Established company with a long history. Sadly, the Cafeteria was the only positive experience.

Cons

Management is so caught up with trying to implement the "MM Way" across the enterprise, that they forget that a business is only successful as it's employees. They training was severely lacking with "classes" run by line employees who were more interested in adding their internal resume than in ensuring new recruits make a successful transition.

Great programs for experience in fortune 100.

Cared more about building a program to attract interns than future employees.

Pros

• Decent benefits • Some good individual contributors and colleagues.

Cons

• Extremely high workload — regularly expected to work 60-80+ hours per week • Constant scope changes with unrealistic expectations and impossible deadlines • Upper management was disconnected and showed little concern for employee well-being • Highly political environment where internal politics often outweighed actual performance • Mass layoffs that eliminated roughly half the engineering team, followed by offshoring many roles to India — even after many of us had dedicated 4+ years to the company • Extremely stressful and unsustainable culture leading to widespread burnout
