Pros
The people, especially leadership, are very nice and approachable.

A lot of politics between the business. Region leaders have their own politics that affect everyone below. Some leaders heavily play favorites.

Pros
I don't find pros, I regret that I joined the company.
Cons
People in management has too much power and they take advantage of your visa status. Manager in the company talks rudely and tell you openly that he will get you fired if you don't whatever he says.

Pros
Competitive salaries, good health plans, unlimited PTO, cool products, good industry to be in, nice office perks, WFH options
Cons
Layoffs every 6-9 months that butcher morale and conveniently eliminate good employees, overlooking people who are terrible. Guess leadership expects the good ones left behind to pick up the slack for everyone. People leave left and right to escape the sinking ship. Leadership and organizational changes seemingly every quarter, combined with always-changing business strategies (attempts to remain relevant as FEYE falls behind competitors). If our leaders don't even want to stick around, why should average employees? R&D priorities are constantly being changed, months-long efforts and investments are killed at the drop of a hat. Revenue-generating products are gutted, hiring all goes to India. Lack of 401k matching is "offset" by stock options... Go look up FEYE stock price. Lots of internal politics and all that comes with it.... Can't count how many times I've heard newer employees ask "Is this normal here?"

Pros
flexibility, free snacks, food , PTO
Cons
Completely hopeless strategy. Just trying to keep up the revenue and the company up float. Even if they try hard, they are not going anywhere.. the products are dying, no execution capability, And they don't lay off the people that had destroyed the product instead they lay off good people that would actually make a difference.
