Pros

The work can be intense and interesting and it's rewarding that people love the products.

Cons

The quality of life is only fair. Long hours, very male engineer dominated. Little to speak of in terms of on site amenities or social opportunities. Compensation is only average for the area and the hours. The stock has been flat for years, making the typical RSU stock rewards and employee stock purchase plans in lieu of raises a disappointing incentive, especially as the RSUs vest over four years.

Pros

The product security organization has a very ideal work-life balance. The culture is strong on ownership and trust. There is a good sense of pride and collaboration across teams with low level of politics and high sense of "the project is the boss". Compensation is good for the roles. Merit increases and promotions are mostly transparent, but can vary from manager to manager.

Cons

Leadership direction can be whiplash at some times. Some initiatives feel directionless, while others feel misguided. Leadership does respond to push back and listens to employees though, but it often feels like managing up.
