Great global company culture, work and benefits. Focused on innovation and employee / customer experience, which in my opinion is spot on. The new Singapore office at IOI Central Boulevard is excellent.
Cons
Similar to the technology sector, there is job volatility especially if under performing. If you are a good performer, and comply to the company ethics.

Bar is low for being a domain expert - knowledge the average Silicon Valley engineer should have is somehow in short supply there, so it's easier to stand out
Pay was OK, while it lasted
Cons
Repeated rounds of layoffs, with departed colleagues' work being heaped on those remaining, left everyone miserable and stressed and just waiting for when our turn is next.
My boss actually announced development was shifting to "startup mode", and when I asked if that means more upside or flexibility or equity or any of the other reasons you may choose a startup over a large established company, the answer was, "no, just more work" (!?!)
Serious culture and power divide between overseas and California based development teams.
Zero career growth investment in employees; no training or conferences except those offered by Zoom.
Fired entire DEI team
CEO attended Melania's movie premier
