Pros

Very nice colleagues Diverse Workforce Room to grow

Cons

Push to no hybrid work was really cringy who desperately management wanted to enforce this. So much that they took daily attendance. I really disliked how management used the story “we’re a family” to somehow encourage better culture at work. We’re not a family. We’re here to do our jobs and collaborate to achieve a common goal. Listen to your staff and create creative solutions that your staff bring to the table. Very top down management with very little collaboration with general staff. Microsoft office file management was a chaotic disaster. I really struggled to thrive in their file management. Very little training on file management. Management was so concerned over people being in person daily, they would encourage people that were sick to come in. COVID spread like crazy because of this. They took no accountability. You have to pay for parking. Once you’re in, you see how chaotic and disorganized management is, versus how they present themselves to the work as leading innovators.. very disappointing. Benefits and compensation pretty weak compared to other large Bay Area companies.
