Pros

- Dev equipment was decent. - Great bonus structure for top performance. - It is really difficult to get fired. - Decent benefits. - Pay is on par with industry standards. - The campus is really nice. - Volunteer work for charity.

Cons

- It is really hard to get fired so you have to deal with dead weight. Sometimes there are "volatile" personalities who won't be fired even with workplace violence prevention in place. - You are in a silo so you won't have an opportunity to touch technology outside your area. - Your skills will also atrophy due to lack of new projects. - Work life balance is a joke if you want a decent APEX score. - Promotions are few and far between.

Pros

Easy to apply, fast to get hired (no interview process) and the pay

Cons

Very rude management, lack of care for safety, no drinkable water (all filters are in the red and have been since I started) They have cameras everywhere and are constantly watching you but say you can’t bring your own phone in because “people steal them”? There is junk everywhere. Lots of trash everywhere (employees drinks and food). They want you to work and eat on the line instead of giving you breaks to do so. They get upset when you use the bathroom or fill your water bottle even if you’ve been working for 3 hours straight but if you clock in at an area 2 min walking distance from your work area you’re “stealing time” I’ve noticed people of color get treated differently. The HR department has some of the most prejudice employees so there’s no real equality if you have conflict with someone. I’ve never been, but it feels like a prison to go in and out of the building and lastly you don’t work a consistent schedule. You leave when they say you can.
