Pros

Great benefits. Great company value statement. Easy intro tech job. Some really great people in Tucson.

Cons

My Team Leader was awful. He inappropriately shared information about other people on my team with me. He didn’t congratulate me or say goodbye to me when I got a new job. Inappropriate joking (racist, derogatory remarks) would go unchecked consistently. Over 3 years, the leadership in Tucson and beyond showed an unwillingness to respond to concerns of staff. When employees are underperforming or disrespectful to others, it is often said “it’s very difficult to have someone fired.”

Pros

Nice headquarters, good people, fun atmosphere.

Cons

Questionable C-Suite directives/policies. A lot of bureaucracy, and it's difficult to move new ideas forward.

Pros

Great, and I mean great benefits.

Cons

Poor local culture, everybody is in their own clicks and don't deviate from them. Not a huge amount of office friendliness. Not many team building exercises, and qa gets left out of alot. If you're not a developer, you will have a yard time socially. Coffee is the worst I've had at a company ever. Return to office was not handled right, and the wfh policies were written very vague by a local manager, but what they actually wanted was very specific and was not communicated at all(avg of 1 per month over the course of a year). This lead to a problem where I was denied a wfh request to grieve a dead pet because I used wfh 2 weeks earlier to register a new car ( that I got solely for work commute)
