Pros

Work schedule can be relatively flexible depending on the business unit and leadership. Work can be rewarding and fun. Again, this depends on the business unit and what you consider rewarding and fun. Opportunity for international travel. Compared to other companies, you can typically negotiate a pretty comfortable salary.

Cons

The company appears to be chipping away at employee benefits in the U.S. during the present times. Executives tend to undervalue employee satisfaction. Many "jaded" senior level employees which can be difficult to work with as an intermediate level. The everyday work can be often times boring. Forced ranking system can be unfair and focuses primarily on weaknesses which often times makes employees feel like they can never achieve success. Some of the Engineers need to pick up a Dale Carnegie book.

Working with great people makes such a difference day to day – it's good to hear that's been a real part of your experience. We hear you on internal progression – career growth can feel different for everyone, and we know we've still got work to do to make development paths clearer. Feedback like yours really helps us move in the right direction.

Thanks for sharing, sounds like you’ve had some great people around you – that kind of support makes a huge difference. It’s also encouraging to hear the company direction is coming through as a positive. Location is a personal factor, and we appreciate you sharing that as part of your overall experience.
