Pros

Most of the people are great to work with. The majority of people are very engaged in their work and strive to do the best for their work groups, the company, producers, and customers. The benefits are good, and compensations is somewhat fair.

Cons

They let some really decent people go because they don't pay them what they are worth. Managers are forced to pay high salaries to attract good talent when hiring, but cannot pay existing employees a fair salary as they progress through their careers.

Great programs for experience in fortune 100.

Cared more about building a program to attract interns than future employees.

Pros

• Decent benefits • Some good individual contributors and colleagues.

Cons

• Extremely high workload — regularly expected to work 60-80+ hours per week • Constant scope changes with unrealistic expectations and impossible deadlines • Upper management was disconnected and showed little concern for employee well-being • Highly political environment where internal politics often outweighed actual performance • Mass layoffs that eliminated roughly half the engineering team, followed by offshoring many roles to India — even after many of us had dedicated 4+ years to the company • Extremely stressful and unsustainable culture leading to widespread burnout
