Pros

Smart engineering staff High salaries Large bonus pay

Cons

Hours are frankly abusive Chaotic - frequent total reorgs mean you wrong be working with the team you joined within a year Most projects are uninteresting and grueling slogs Politics are by far the rule of the day and hinder nearly all efforts Local management is fixated on "alpha," a vague term borrowed from banking with little basis in reality for the center

Pros

Annual raises and variable bonuses, Hybrid schedule, kind people, lots of events for making connections

Cons

Difficult to get an interview unless you have a referral. Otherwise not really any cons, I’ve only been here for a year so can’t really speak yet to any hindrances that might come when trying to get promoted, etc.
