Pros
  • Excellent health benefits including coverage for all family members (no deductions from paycheck unless spouse's company offers health benefits).

  • Maternity leave shows how the company cares for employees and the value of family, about 5 months in total paid! Paternity leave is a bit less time but still excellent.

  • Culture is great.

Cons
  • Reduce unnecessary travel. This seems to have improved since more customers are willing to meet remotely in the last couple of years.
  • Make engineering jobs more open to employees outside of the Redmond area. This has also seemed to be improving with more remote work, but some teams are still not very open to this.
