Work-life balance is there for some but non-existent for others. Not everyone pulls their weight. Not all teams work at the same level of intensity. There's a poor track record in hiring and retaining individuals from underrepresented minority groups, though the company is trying to improve this.

Both Oregon and California have high state income tax.
