Pros

Annual PTO & Sick time is given upfront at the beginning of the new year.

Cons

* Yearly layoffs in the Spring (NO matter uf you are a good employee. Even if you are above average on production and quality) * Micromanaged * Judgemental managers/higher ups (lots of cliques) * Bare minimum raises and bottom of the totem pole on new hire wages compared to CEO, VP, HR etc * Youre just another number in the corporate world. (Lack of job security) * Desk sharing, lack of tissues and clorox wipes (Don't care about germs and everyone getting sick)

Pros

Very good co-workers, Great technology stack. Lot of new technologies and integration with current work.

Cons

They dont even give you a MS cup. They ask you to buy it for 5$. So cheap! Management big on "Giving back", Immediate managers do not like it and are not supportive. Lay off employees twice a year to show profits. Only worried about shareholders and clients. Don't know the criteria for lay-off. So, you are always worried if it is your turn. They boast about mental health and wellness. No good, when they layoff employees like this. HR = Horrible Resources. When you are laid off, they shoo you away as if you are a fly. You feel miserable. They themselves say - "We are better than Facebook or Oracle. We dont fire you at 6 AM over email." Gosh! What a comparison!
