      Pros

      It was awesome place to work, intelligent people around you. Systematic software development practices. Good compensation and team outing every month. Pretty chill working environment, time flexibility. Have a lot of other perks.

      Cons

      Nothing as such. Just sometimes work gets repeated. you end up learning nothing much. Otherwise, nice place to work. Product management is although not that good

      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
