Pluspunten
- the pay is good - there are plenty of exciting and challenging problems to solve - most ICs who work here are very smart & nice/professional
Minpunten
- it has turned into the next IBM since Jassy took over (little innovation, just trying to squeeze profit out of everything, no more opportunities for bottoms-up ideas) - everyone is overworked since they're trying to prove that AI can replace developers (it can't yet) - the performance evaluation process is opaque and rubbish. Anyone who's moved past the young & single part of their life can't compete & will eventually be managed out despite the company's stated diversity goals (or you'll rarely see your spouse &/or kids) - lots of office politics, most management (especially VP level and above) are harsh and will throw anything and everyone under the bus to advance their careers unless you suck up to them. This unfortunately means that coworkers/fellow ICs can't afford to be compassionate even if they want to be & will occasionally need to stab you in the back just to make sure they don't get a bad rating (or keep their top rating so they can get promoted) - while the pay is competitive, the benefits are not (they're not complete trash, but you can get better almost anywhere else)
