Pros

Work life balance is great. You can get good projects if you are a good performer. Salary, perks/benefits are top notch when you join.

Cons

I served for over 10 years. Company sucks at acquisitions and integrating the same. Also management hides failures citing the reasons like macro and micro economic challenges. Too many internal BU rename and realignment. Good at losing market dominance viz iSCSI and integrated infrastructure. It was a great company to work for, that phase is passed.

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.
