Pros: I have worked at a lot of large and small (startup) companies in my career. Arista Networks is simply the best of both worlds. We work on great technology with great, friendly, bright people for a company that continues to excel. People need to understand that it is very rare to find all three in a job. The company culture is to "do the right thing," and that is true in every aspect of the job. This rings true because it starts at the top, from Jayshree, to Andy, to Ken, to Anshul, all the way down to each of the managers. They truly are passionate technologists that care for their employees. In these trying times of a pandemic, they work more on a trust model rather than an old, archaic, corporate structure. Whether you are a parent juggling remote learning for your kids or a single young employee living in isolation, they are very understanding to everyone's needs. This is by far and away the best job I've ever had.

Cons: Because of the flat organization, there is an enormous amount of email, mostly due to automated tooling.

Pros: Arista Networks is more or less like a candy shop for network engineers. Anyone in core networking will enjoy this job, but it comes with its own challenges.

Cons: Work-life balance is average.

Pros: Work-life balance, compensation, and work culture.

Cons: Nothing that I am aware of.
