Pros

The company really has the employees best interest on mind and does everything to create an inclusive, fun and fair place to work. I appreciate the healthy work environment, the diversity and the good vibe that resonates across the company.

Cons

You might work with people across the globe, and that can result in early morning or late night calls. You need to be very aware of your boundaries and set them up straightforwardly from the very beginning. Also, it is a big corporation, sometimes processes do not make a lot of sense from a business perspective. You have to make peace with the fact that you cannot change everything.

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
