Vantaggi
- Great work/life balance (except for being on call... see Cons) - I like the hybrid work arrangement (2 days per week in office) - Competitive pay and nice yearly bonus - Pension plan in addition to 401k matching - Boston office is convenient to public transit - Social hour in the office every Wednesday evening 4-6pm with free drinks, appetizers, and snacks (optional, stay for as long as you like) - Pretty good cafeteria, with other lunch places within walking distance of the office - Indoor bicycle parking and locker room with showers for bike commuters in the Boston office - Free access to LinkedIn Learning and Pluralsight online courses - 4 weeks FTO (combined vacation & sick time) per year at my level - Not much bureaucracy for such a big company
Svantaggi
- I'm one of only 3 engineers in my group, so I'm on call 1/3 of the time - Not publicly traded, so no stock plan - My manager's manager made it very difficult to get promoted for people under him, unfortunately - They block personal email sites like Gmail on the work computers (to prevent phishing, they say), as well as Spotify (why?!) and random other websites. (Most major websites are allowed though.)
