Think twice. Good benefits. Quality of work: poor. Micromanaging

Pros

Benefits are great in R&D.

Cons

Culture in the org is not good. Teams are siloed. There is no clear direction. Tools/tech are not interesting. There's a strong top-down approach with little to no bottom-up. There's micromanaging. It's impossible to get any work done. Work-life balance is dreadful. Management is patronizing/condescending.

Advice to Management

Allow input from all workers (not just principals and "team leads").

Lay out roadmaps before jumping into them.

Pay for on-call work.

Listen.
