Pros

Good benefits, generous holidays, RSUs, and certain managers are great.

Cons

Sadly, it's getting worse and worse. Unlimited PTO, but really, it's capped at 3 weeks. Even if you used to get 4 weeks, now the unlimited is 3 weeks. Managers are pawns and have to do what the higher-ups say. Work-life balance is non-existent, constant work getting offshored, and layoffs happen every month. The next 6 months will be layoffs guaranteed.

Advice to Management

Go back to your roots. Pinching pennies is not the way to do it, but you're always late to the game.
