Pros

There really aren't any, unless you have a family and like being the one eyed man in the land of the blind. Also, if you get in good with your manager, it's very easy to slip between the cracks and slack off.

Kontras

Hugely political, and managers are not very aware of who the good coders in the group are. Also, it's predominantly a marketing organization, so developers get stepped on. Also, it's heavily process oriented, but now we're trying to become more "agile". So now we have an "agile waterfall", which is just an awful awful idea. It just means that product managers can slack off far more.

Pros

Relaxing culture. family first. Stock performance is generally good for the recent two years and huge benefit if you're eligible for ESPP. Stable product with large customer base means you get opportunity to work on project with real impact.

Kontras

1. Blind push for AI and leadership expect unrealistic efficiency improvement 2. Layoff every year in Feb (2024, 2025, 2026) and sometimes can feel the tension in team 3. Legacy tech stack with isolated and fragile infrastructure. Developer friction is a real pain. You get random infra down every once a while and internal support becomes even worse since they started offshoring to LCOL area in 2025. 4. Hiring freeze in San Jose... just expect more layoff coming up + frequent meetings at night / early morning across regions
