Pros

Global Company so one would hope a lot of opportunity.

Cons

Terrible place to work. They give the standard line that employees are their most important asset then proceed to treat you as expendable and work you like a slave expecting 24x7 access. They talk about integrity as a core value and then the CEO has a sordid affair with A hired executive consultant that ends with gunshots into his home from his wife, Followed by A divorce and the firing of the consultant but the CEO maintains his job and says it's personal and none of anyone's business so will not be discussed further. Low Morale and chaotic management and constant change is typical.

Pros

Decent base pay and fast paced work makes the days go by quickly. Lately the company has been actually investing in their new product lines ever since Joakim became our CEO.

Cons

The compensation is lacking. No bonuses whatsoever for senior level engineers even when they're recognized as a key contributor on the team. We are given our 401k match on March 1st to cover the previous year's matches so you lose out on a lot of the year's market gains. The healthcare coverage is mediocre at best for a fortune 500 company. The raises are still given like it's 2018; 3% is considered a "good" merit increase. This is due to the "forced distribution" merit increase system where only "so many" people can receives "above expectations" raises.
