Pros

Coworkers are kind and friendly and typically don't hesitate to help others. The common employees are the best part of this company.

Cons

Top level leadership is incompetent, greedy, and hypocritical. Employee experience is the last thing on their minds, and it has continued to plummet with the recent acquisition by private equity, SilverLake. 4 day RTO and 2 weeks remote "benefit," enforced if you're unlucky like me and get a bad manager Comp is getting worse, and promo opportunities have severely decreased, now dependent on a "business need" rather than strictly merit/readiness. WLB is heavily team-dependent, but my experience has ranged from okay to terrible, being asked to work on an occasional weekend or late nights. Some terrible managers and politics with arbitrary deadlines being pushed onto employees from leaders and no way to push back.

Pros

Fantastic people work there and it's a good place to start your career. The workplace perks are decent, there are snacks and lunches provided at the office. There are also good accommodations for mental health, religious observances, and nursing mothers.

Cons

The company pivoted to "business need" as a reason for promo. Promotions are now seemingly few and far between despite higher level individuals leaving. Recent restructuring has left those still working at the company with less time to do actual client work and more time being spent documenting the work done. ELT doesn't seem to actually listen and instead performs listening theatre.
