Vantaggi

There is a strong drive to innovate and provide value to customer. Good work life balance and lot of opportunities to diversify your skills. Access to excellent technical resources.

Svantaggi

Weighed down by bureaucracy. There is a process even for the simplest of things, which prevents the organisation from being agile and fast evolving. There is always a tussle between the different tech centres to take control of work. The company is spooked out about IPR and go to great lengths to protect data, even at the cost of delay in work. Quite difficult for tech employees to adapt to the strict IT rules.

Good health insurance and benefits, good yearly bonuses. The pay is good.

Svantaggi

They are enforcing returning to office by any means necessary. They have lost many high-quality producers who have refused to relocate or refuse to come in. Here's the kicker - they are requiring in-person attendance at the Chicago office and there aren't even enough desks for everyone. It would be a literal fire hazard if we all came into the Chicago office at the same time, M-F, during business hours. No one knows how or if they are going to actually enforce this. Cost of gas is insane, Joe doesn't care about the workers. Or the work for that matter. It's obvious this is a soft layoff, they have made a bunch of people quit. Their internal design agency is falling apart, lots of people have quit, not only because of return to office but because of the toxic politics, favoritism, and lack of direction and accountability. Mediocre workers are allowed to keep their jobs ONLY because of their ability to put their bodies in a chair and work in-person. The other relocation option HR gave besides Chicago was Peoria. No one wants to live in Peoria for any reason whatsoever, be for real.
