Pros

Salary is the only good thing.

Cons

My experience was a manager telling me I needed to innovate, but a lead blocking me from doing that. I was accused of lying to avoid admitting a mistake, when in actuality, I found a bug that nobody wanted to see me reproduce. I was told that maybe my book accidentally bumped a button and turned off a device in the rack. When a coworker told me about the unprofessional things someone was saying about me, she was told not to speak to me anymore. I went to HR about all of the unprofessional treatment I received (there was much more) and I got put on a PIP. That is when I negotiated my out with their legal team. It is not worth it to try to prove yourself around men that do not want to believe a woman can be a good engineer.

Advice to Management

I have no advice other than to fire a certain manager who is toxic and stop telling employees that HR helps you. They want to get rid of anyone who will not tolerate abuse and will be silenced. I took the pretty nice severance and ran far away.
