Pros

Pay is very good and each year you get an increase depending on how well you have done the previous year as well as if you went beyond your role and did things like creating reports on how something is or isn't working etc. Benefits are great, VHI, EAP etc.

Cons

You're expected to work on other lines if they are busy so everyone is cross trained but it's the bare basics which isn't helpful when you are asked difficult questions. They pretend to care about your mental or physical health and advise you not to come in if unwell but when you go back, they have to do a return to work interview and the questions asked make you feel like you've caused more work for everyone for being our sick. "How do you think your absence affects the team and department overall" "what will you do in the future to make sure this doesn't happen again" Hard to progress in certain roles and interview process is weird, they use a STAR method

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
