      Pros

      Free Gym. Free sodas. Bagel Wednesdays. There are foosball tables, ping pong tables, boccie ball court etc but it's in the middle of 4 tall buildings and no one plays.

      Cons

      First of all, I am quite amazed about how accurate some of these reviews are. I'd like to confirm these reviews as most of it its the honest truth. Promotions are given out unfairly. Lots of favoritism. Hard work is not rewarded. So much secrecy around promotions. No open communication. Horrible work conditions. Senior managers definitely don't know how to lead or motivate their employees. Senior managers only out for themselves and only manage upwards. Pay is not competitive and up to par with industry standards.

      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
