Pros

Good benefits. If you've never worked before in software, it's good for a start.

Nice coffee in the office.

Cons

Not really interesting work. Sub-par pay for interns. Not flexible enough to employ an intern full-time before they have a diploma, so I quit.

Being cheap on almost anything. In Poland, you cannot use some benefits that are in the States because of budget limitations and because it sometimes requires a few levels of approval to get it through (sic!). For example, buying WFH equipment was a nightmare.

They are losing their competitive edge, and with anti-consumer practices, it's not that motivating to give your everything in a job.

Advice to Management

Stop anti-consumer practices. Do everything you can to catch up to AMD. And maybe finally change the architecture to ARM.
