Cons

Way too many layers of worthless management. In my over 10 years of service, you feel like an employee number and nothing more.

The location policy is archaic. When all other companies are allowing talented people to work from home anywhere to boost the talent pool, WF is limiting the locations to six or so.

You must go into an office a few days a week. You go into an office, sit in a random cube with no one from your team, so that you can "collaborate." Makes perfect sense.

If you are looking for a fulfilling job, this is not the place.

The Technology leadership team is outsourcing a lot of positions. Outsourcing and cutting corners is how the current WXPS EVP plans to save the company money.

Advice to Management

Too many layers! Technology leaders come and go frequently, always with an agenda to boost their resumes and jump to bigger and better. As an individual contributor, it is very deflating to see a long-term project blown up just because the new leader wants to put their stamp on something.
