Pluspunten

I had an amazing team and an amazing manager. Many smart engineers. Pay was good (too good, can't match it easily).

Minpunten

Quarterly reorgs - most didn't affect the workers directly but multiple layoffs have happened in the past several years. Canned projects. The leadership doesn't seem to understand the market and shifts too often, wasting valuable resources. Certain genders and races are less likely to get promotions. Heavily biased. CEO and leadership has no business talking politics and officially espousing political viewpoints. CEO has a way of demoralizing the company with every speech he makes. No matter how good a quarter or a year was, it wasn't good enough. Diversity has a way of overlooking the best; distribution of the employees is skewed relative to local population. Quality team was mostly laid off; quality is BUILT into products, not tested in.

Pluspunten

Amongst the top companies in the data storage industry = company stability.

Minpunten

If you'd ask me a year or 2 ago, I would have given the company 5 stars. But, as with most tech companies now, they've started to follow the trend of return to office, regardless of logic. There's little to no room for exceptions and the company would rather sacrifice productivity regardless if they know the hardships for people living in metros (one way commute to the NY or SJC office can take 2 hours one way!) - that and there's no commuter benefits. You have to pay out of pocket and live in fear of not receiving your bonus if you miss the "thrive together" quarterly requirements.
