Pros

Overall, my time at WD was an overall positive experience. Family like culture with great pay. Got to meet the CEO on day one and the incentives were great, including competitive benefits with ESPP.

Cons

Not too many negative things to say about working at WD. Travel was constant which took away from work/life balance, but they paid you for the time and were lenient with the expense account.

Pros

- The company itself is doing well financially, allowing departments to take on bigger projects - Great work-life balance culture and unlimited PTO that actually allows for generate usage - Casual culture that encourages collaboration - Non-salary benefits are strong, with even lower-level employees benefiting from the stock purchase plan

Cons

- Despite its strong position, the company does trim headcount for the sake of efficiency - Work ethic seems complacent, but is offset by company's strong financial standing - Management can be cut-throat, but strong performers usually do well - Salaries are below market rate
