Pluspunten

For most of the teams, the work pressure is lower compared to other contemporary companies. Management usually is open for new ideas to improve productivity. Good culture for WFH, though no official policies are present, with a valid case there are usually no questions asked.

Minpunten

Have no proper logic of pay increase. The increase in pay for a regular employee will never even meet the basic inflation rate. Hugely dependent on the immediate management even for these minimal benefits. Folks usually resort to reducing their performance for the same and company is usually fine with this unless it impacts deliverables very severely. No pretense of any additional goodies or encouragement for high performers. Techstack is primitive in most teams. And the struggle is always there for a minor improvement in this.

Pluspunten

Every group/division can be different in how they treat their employees, but I'd say overall there is very good atmosphere of trust and fairness. There is a strong focus on education, and they reimburse for outside classes taken (Up to 5k/year I think). Benefits are good, and I'd say quite competitive in the market. Good 401K matching (they'll contribute a max of 3% of your 6% or greater). Free drinks in the breakroom. Flexibility to work from home at times. (If you live 50+ miles away from an office you can work full-time from home...policy).

Minpunten

They don't try to make the workplace anything special (maybe a pool table and arcade game are cliche or gimmicky?). In the 10 years I've worked there, they've given 2 measly %1 cost of living raises (this is the same with most everyone I've spoken to, some don't get any raises). You will not get a substantial raise ever, unless you leave then get rehired on (they will not match offers, better to leave). New employees that you train will make 10 - 20K more than you several years after you hire on (not just me, they do this to all tenured employees). They will give these untrained, less experienced people higher titles (again this is done to everyone not just me). You learn pretty quickly that you're dispensable. The company has billions in cash and they don't re-invest in their employees, just in acquiring new companies and hiring new people that know nothing that you get to train.
