Pros

Good benefits, remote work, cool product and manufacturing, international presence, and a household name. Internal systems tend to work better than at other companies, but everything comes with its ups and downs. Technical talent has a home here, whereas some companies are all-too-eager to contract out. Lateral movement is great too, so if you're bored in one area, you can always make the transition to another place in the company.

Cons

Hyper-competitive at times, more than what the pay justifies.

The employee really needs to set boundaries for their home life. No matter how good you think the pay is, remember why you work and keep that in mind.

There is also a holdout of "good ol' boys" in some areas who are pretty toxic. Some people are just really aggressive, and you just have to stand your ground.

Advice to Management

Onboarding is a bit rough when working remotely. I'm lucky enough to be a rehire and already knew a lot about how the company worked, but if someone was just starting, they'd have a rough time.
