Pros

Talented colleagues, strong brand equity, and exposure to large-scale campaigns. A great place to learn about what not to tolerate long-term.

Cons

Leadership culture often prioritised control over clarity. Feedback mechanisms existed in theory, not in practice. Decisions were frequently made without cross-functional input, reversed abruptly, or poorly communicated, creating confusion and rework. Some senior staff were publicly undermined, while others quietly exited after raising valid concerns. Multiple roles were merged into one following departures, without restructuring or support, suggesting a focus on short-term optics over long-term team sustainability.

Pros

Great products. Everyone gets to travel at least once per year.

Cons

Low pay compared to top US electronics companies. Strong culture of favoritism — managers rarely promote on merit and frequently move the goalposts for employees outside their inner circle. Colleagues and managers regularly take credit for others' work. I personally witnessed and experienced what I believe to be gender and race-based inequities in how employees are treated and evaluated. HR was unresponsive when issues were raised.
