Cons

If you're a compiler engineer or a software engineer joining a compiler team under CE-SW, please reconsider. Upper management are known to play favourites, hold on to toxic employees, you can complain a million times about bullying and discrimination but the ones who bully and discriminate are not held accountable since they are friends of the managers.

The diversity of the teams is on the decline and when these issues are raised the response is usually “there's nothing we can do”. I would stay away unless you're hired based on a personal connection to the engineering managers.

Advice to Management

Just do better overall.
