Pros

Good pay, work environment, Cafetaria, Pantry.

Cons

Process takes back seat when it comes to execution. Senior management has no vision for future, No clarity on the road map and even if it is there, it moves from north to south every now and then. Group-ism is at core. If you don't find a god father, you are finished.

Pros

Amongst the top companies in the data storage industry = company stability.

Cons

If you'd ask me a year or 2 ago, I would have given the company 5 stars. But, as with most tech companies now, they've started to follow the trend of return to office, regardless of logic. There's little to no room for exceptions and the company would rather sacrifice productivity regardless if they know the hardships for people living in metros (one way commute to the NY or SJC office can take 2 hours one way!) - that and there's no commuter benefits. You have to pay out of pocket and live in fear of not receiving your bonus if you miss the "thrive together" quarterly requirements.
