      Pros

      Work colleagues, pay for what you do, location, benefits, free car park, on site gym

      Cons

      all about networking, doesnt matter if the person has the abilities to do the job, if manager likes you, you will go far. soul destroying to see. most of the supervisors have worked there way up, so lack the skill set to be people managers; no direction, change leadership team every 1-2 years and they change the vision and direction, so nothing ever really gets implemented. everything lead from US. act like they care what the European counterparts think, but they don't. career opportunities limited. turnover high due to this.

      Pros

      Relaxing culture. family first. Stock performance is generally good for the recent two years and huge benefit if you're eligible for ESPP. Stable product with large customer base means you get opportunity to work on project with real impact.

      Cons

      1. Blind push for AI and leadership expect unrealistic efficiency improvement 2. Layoff every year in Feb (2024, 2025, 2026) and sometimes can feel the tension in team 3. Legacy tech stack with isolated and fragile infrastructure. Developer friction is a real pain. You get random infra down every once a while and internal support becomes even worse since they started offshoring to LCOL area in 2025. 4. Hiring freeze in San Jose... just expect more layoff coming up + frequent meetings at night / early morning across regions
