Pros

A good place to work with a well-organized work culture. Most teams have healthy structures. The company offers good benefits and work-life balance.

Cons

Periodic layoffs, often targeting employees needing visa sponsorship. Sometimes these are just to meet departmental headcount goals. These decisions are not performance-based, which can create job insecurity.
