Pros

Good pay, good benefits. Tech stack is good in some teams.

Cons

Mid-level managers often form cliques with others who share similar backgrounds or viewpoints, which creates a biased and exclusionary environment. They like making word salads and impressing upper management and look busy but do 0 work. Many of them lack the global outlook expected at a multinational company. They have provincial knowledge and lack the level of knowledge needed for a multinational company. Communication is often unclear, and decision-making feels arbitrary. Some teams have absolutely no work and they just hire to fire to make themselves look decisive and important. Project allocations can change suddenly, sometimes shifting work to offshore teams without prior notice. This unpredictability, combined with heavy internal politics, is already leading to the loss of strong talent—a trend upper management should address promptly. Recruitment and Interview Process (Cons): The recruitment experience was frustrating. I cleared the first round of interviews, then heard nothing for nine months. When another recruiter finally reached out, they had no idea of my prior progress. This lack of coordination reflects poorly on the company’s internal systems. In terms of hiring outcomes, I observed that some less experienced candidates received higher offers—possibly due to being more agreeable or better at catering to egos. Meanwhile, more experienced engineers were overlooked or lowballed. Despite promises of multiple team matches, offers were often limited or retracted with little explanation. Onboarding was fine, though even my assigned manager seemed unclear about key processes. The overall experience left me questioning the consistency and maturity of internal leadership. Some managers appear more focused on impressing senior leadership than supporting their teams. In one instance, a manager casually threatened to make team members memorize corporate values, seemingly as a way to gain favor from above. In other words "Cool Aid drinking process" is formally endorsed by some managers flippantly. While the company advertises strong cultural values, recent treatment of respected colleagues contradicted those claims. For example, one well-performing colleague was let go without even receiving her annual review. When questioned, her manager simply said, "It is what it is." Overall, the gap between stated values and actual practices is concerning.

Pros

Benefits are amazing, medical insurance, vision and dental. Company match on 401K and volunteer time off.

Cons

They keep making decisions to outsource jobs to contract workers who don't share the same value in training or customer care. Oh they say they do but when you catch the listening to music so loud you can't hear the customer, or literally snoring on the line they can't do anything because of the way the contracts are set up. It is up to the contract company and the contract company just needs warm bodies. They did not even supply enough people doing our busiest season this year to co or the shifts that were required in the contract. So good luck with that. They will always eventually lay you off.
