Pros
  • Good work-life balance
  • Managers are understanding
  • People are very friendly
Cons
  • Senior engineers and managers lack experience.
  • Compensations are 🥜 (not bad salary, but too little stocks/RSUs) in respect to the work we do.
  • Pay grouping is odd. For example, Virginia is in the same pay group as SF and is higher than Seattle and Texas.
  • It takes forever (about 6 months to a year) to get the backfill employee because budgets for those are "not allocated" beforehand.
  • Projects can be exciting, but engineers have made some questionable decisions.
Advice to Management
  • Please match the compensation (salary + stock + bonus) to tech companies in that area. We need this to attract more talented people.

  • Changing the hiring process. Some companies (in the same area) can do X, but for some reason Autodesk can't.
