Best Career choice
Feb 16, 2023 - Senior Offering Manager in Boston, MARecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
SE is a great company to work for, and I'm glad I decided to apply here 10 years ago (although at the time the entry level pay was dismal and the job was a grind -- that since has changed with the sales development program in Nashville). SE puts a major emphasis on High Performance, and being able to multi-task various projects simultaneously. The amount of resources in HR can be a bit overwhelming from time to time, but the amount of investments they put into their high performers is top notch. There certainly is pressure to continue to perform, but its not overly cut-throat. The people who work here are great and management doesn't make decisions on whim - many are thought out and meticulous. During the pandemic there were a lot of benefits that they maintained, and I am not aware of mass layoffs/RIFs across organizations (there are cases of restructuring but compared to other firms right now its not that bad)
Cons
The issue with continually promoting the high performers (or perceived ones) is that you leave a wide range of employees who are very good at their job feeling undervalued. Not everyone can get the HP rating, and sometimes its subjective. Managers and HR does their best to evaluate as empirically as they can but they miss some often. More benefits and career evolutions needs to be considered for the middle performer pack.

Pros
Good benefits, and time off.
Cons
Cares more about profit regardless of the hazards of that fake vaccine. Threatened to fire all who didn’t get it and could care less if you died or were injured from it. Offered nothing if injured, Good thing for the lawsuit that stopped it. I left before fauci’s bride of Frankenstein was released and had to go through all that again.

Overall, great company!
May 17, 2023 - Electronic Engineer in Morrisville, NCRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Great pay, fantastic benefits, great inclusive culture that expands outside of work
Cons
Very, very large company. People change roles a lot, which requires constant attention. Last week you talked to Paul in Applications, and now he's in Sales and doesn't want to help you if you're not a customer. Half your time will be spent chasing down WHO you need to talk to.

- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
It is a great enterprise to start
Cons
Limited growth inside the company
- Former Employee, more than 5 years★★★★★
Pros
Good benefits. Great peer to peer relationships
Cons
1. Workload too heavy to the point of causing mental & physical illness in employees 2. Upper management has no understanding of what her employees do, let alone what the actual company she works for does. This leads to employees who give data to prove the needs of their team being ignored 3. Far too much EGO at play in upper management and the middle management under them. Worried about saying what exec Mgmt wants to hear rather than doing what needs to be done to maintain, improving isn't even on the radar. So sure that they know more than those who do the work day to day. It's disgusting 4. Treats employees who have suggestions or possible better ways of doing various processes like threats instead of teammates( there's that ego again) 5. 30% turnover in 7 months on one vital team and exit interviews which outline the reasons these employees left are literally ignored 6. Work environment that has one full foot into an abusive, hostile, gas lighting environment but nothing ever done about the numerous complaints 7. It took one exceptionally bad upper manager and her group of acolytes, to crash a once thriving department. 8. Ended the careers of many by making the work environment so untenable that they left the company they loved and intended to retire from
