Pros

The motto of ServiceNow is "Be Hungry, Be Humble" and from what I have seen (at least with engineers), this motto echos throughout the company. This is an engineering-led organization full of brilliant people where respect is shown everywhere. You immediately fall into this growth mindset of wanting to do your best here because you're surrounded by motivated, passionate people who are always willing to help out their coworkers. Also, the generous RSU package is pretty motivating for everyone to do their absolute best. Pros: - Team-focused environment. Lots of pair programming, even at IC3+ levels - Fun, challenging environment - Good work/life balance. No expectations of "burning the midnight oil" - Generous RSU program (vesting after a year) - "Unlimited" PTO with no drama when you take time off

Cons

Could be a little more flexible with the wfh

Pros

Free snacks Leadership opportunities Stable work given current ai market You can get challenging engaging work but it comes at the cost of putting in extra hours Smart and helpful people work here

Cons

Work can a bit boring if not on something cutting edge Dev experience is pretty bad, moving xml files around that contain the actual code, proprietary low/no code platform to build products Full of Indians, diversity is a joke in engineering. It feels like a cost cutting measure more than anything else tbh Very much a checkbox mentality when building products instead of long term thinking with quality and usability Doubts about upper leaderships navigation during rise of ai Pay is nothing near what it should be, especially after stock dropped almost 40% yoy Certain internal processes are difficult for no other reason than we made them like that, lots of reaching out to people for rqts, signoffs, adjustments etc
