Pros

Coworkers are enjoyable to be around and the work is interesting.

Cons

Work-life balance is nonexistent despite constantly talking about it. Project leadership has no idea what is required to get a project out of the door, regularly making impossible asks and refusing to take no for an answer when pushed back on. Many projects are understaffed but upper management has refused to increase headcount in spite of record profits every year. Line management will gaslight you for struggling in an environment where you are set up to fail, lie to your face to deflect blame, and fail to follow through on any commitment for assistance that you do manage to get.

Pros

Location is good and near freeway, they make a crucial technology for the world to function

Cons

Toxic environment. Selective enforcement, antisemitic DEI culture, tattle tale rat snitch employees, managers play favorites, managers move the goal post after you were supposed to earn a salary increase. too many foreigners in management and not enough americans. DEI is a joke and is run by a racist black women. Company will burn you and punish you for problems someoen else created and punish you for it despite no power to fix the issue yourself.
