Pros

Good coworkers mostly, work from home options, good work/ life balance.

Cons

The company has gone completely downhill. It seems the ultimate goal at this point is to get rid of the American workforce and outsource to other countries. I have no faith or trust in the company because everything is done behind your back. If you live in India, you might as well apply because they are taking over every department. They are sinking ship. Raises and bonuses are almost nonexistent at this point.
