      Pros

      Paid Time Off, 401K matching up to 3%.

      Very small amount of sick time given, excessive focus on metrics, management will micromanage you over everything.

      Good learning experience, not a lot of room for growth, new CEO is questionable

      Senior engineer - data science
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good learning experience, although team dependent, there is a lot of freedom to explore new tools and a level of autonomy to approach problems with your own ideas (with reasonable justifications of course). Compensation is super solid with a great work life balance

      Cons

      Not a lot of room for growth, be ready to spend time in the position you were hired as promotions are based a lot on tenure and politics instead of technical merit. Lots of red tape which is typical of "dinosaur" companies that moves super slowly on technological updates (been transitioning to GCP for 4+ years now...), getting access to certain things can be locked behind a heap of access requests. The new CEO loves AI and pushes how great it is at every employee webcast without understanding that the major benefits of AI do not provide the insane benefits to Verizon that he touts.

      Great benefits and culture - Low pay - Outdated tech stack

      Distinguished engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Great benefits: medical, 401k match, etc. - Great culture. HR is fair and enforces respect and good collaborative culture, and amazing people to work with.

      Cons

      - Outdated technologies are embedded and hard to change. - Knowledge is centered around a few folks and is hard to penetrate or change systems that are deeply embedded in the day-to-day operations. - Pay increases haven't really kept up, and compensation is probably 70% less than comparable positions in other tech companies. - No real chance for career growth if you're outside the main hubs.
