Pros

Pays tremendously well, even for new college hires. Not much pressure to work too hard.

Cons

Completely stagnant work. Haven't had a single thing to do since starting. The company seems to be doing really well but is extremely inefficient. There's rarely anything to do.

At least the Burlington and Santa Clara offices are giant buildings with many offices secluded from each other, making collaboration impossible. The office culture is virtually nonexistent. There are breakrooms everywhere, but for some unknown reason, they are stocked with only sugary drinks and tea. Average age is pretty high.

Advice to Management

Learn how to manage younger employees, have more work, and at least attempt to innovate.
