      Pros

      Naturally a combination of tech and biz, still one-of-a-kind business model (though not so true as it used to be)

      Cons

      bad holistic governance, project from one team always dilute/pollute the efforts of another when these two are supposed to work closely with each other; legacy and mentality from the industrial age, live in the past not to the future, very concerned that it will be the another large company to be disrupted. over-weight margin and under-weight growth/investment

      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
