Pros

Good benefits and good brand

Cons

If you pay close attention you will notice apart from the team in India they need as engineers or a select few Asians 90 percent of the USA team is white. CEO president and 90 percent of managers. Including all lower level staff. 90 percent all white. And they blame and fire women the most. If women managers or other admin staff don’t kiss as they are fired.

Pros

The people in non- upper management roles that work there are fantastic. Great sense of community onsite and the culture champions are consistently looking for ways to make work life better.

Cons

Very poor communication on the strategy for the business unit. Leadership publicly promotes innovation and new ideas to be presented but then those ideas are shot down or penalized in private by current upper management. The business unit leadership says that don't want excuses for project delays but will then decide to do 3 major layoffs in the first two quarters with no transition plan, no support for gap in resources and no expectations to delayed progress.
