Pros

Good products, good for R&D and engineering.

Cons

No visibility into the closed ranks of the top execs. They applaud mediocrity in all areas but software development and it's reflected in the below-market salary levels. There is no flexibility if you're in the head office, but no one really bothers you if you're remote. The corporate culture is really awful and very bad office politics and even worse seating assignments.

Pros

Supportive coworkers who were always willing to teach, answer questions, and help me succeed.

Cons

Management needs significant improvement. I didn't feel supported or properly trained, and there was an expectation to know how to do tasks without adequate guidance. Communication was often unclear, and feedback focused more on mistakes than coaching. I also felt isolated, and it seemed employee concerns were discussed with others instead of being addressed directly. A more supportive and communicative management team would greatly improve the workplace.
