Pros

Good Benefits. Pay is good. Some of the people are great.

Cons

To numerous to count. 1. Saving judgement on Kurian, the rest of the team needs to move on. They don't work well together. Sales leadership (TG and RS) are old re-treads that need to go. Noviello is dangerous and untrustworthy. 2. Company missed the changing industry and now cannot compete. 3. Too much politics. Too much focus on investors. Attrition is at an all time high.

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.
