Pros

Great employees work here. Products are good.

Cons

Short sighted decisions that are all about l about the end of the quarter, or getting out a particular release. Some of the most talented employees will get laid off in a whim. Management will just cancel a project and lay everyone off who worked on that project no matter how good of an engineer they are. Whatever it takes to look good to a shareholder and get their bonus at the end of a quarter. More managers than any company i have ever seen. Healthcare benefits are not good.

Pros

Good PTO and benefits. Work load is manageable but the company is going through a business transformation process which could increase workload to maximize efficiency.

Cons

Work life balance decreased steadily over the years with not a lot of room for growth within FP&A. Many roles were BPO’d out.
