Pros

Challenging work, some teams have amazingly talented people and there is a lot of opportunity to grow & develop in some areas of engineering.

Cons

Very political environment, with performance reviews unable to account for technical input and outcomes, relying extensively on "being liked by everyone" and being agreeable with whatever nonsense managers may dream up overnight. Senior management does not care about individuals, they think everyone has the same needs as them and tries to fit everyone in the same model that works for them. Best example for this is the latest return to office change, which indiscriminately expects everyone to further tweak the hybrid model.

Pros

Good salary, thats about it

Cons

Toxic work culture, they want you to work from 6 am to 9pm. If you do not speak french or are not french you will feel like an outsider. Favoritism is big here, manager have their favorites and will feed them inbounds. Very hard to get approval to go to conferences, and there is no ROI, longer reps hold on to bigger name merchants for years even though they are not having any impact, and no one does anything about it.
