"The company is a sinking ship that cannot afford to pay their people anymore. A year ago, I would have said this would be a great company to work for to grow your career but now I would tell people to steer clear of this place."

"I work in the Legal department, which is more conservative/traditional than other departments, and I still am really happy with the degree of flexibility that I am offered to work from home, adjust my hours, etc."

"The flexibility is incredible. The company policy on PTO is unlimited but even beyond that, there is a great focus on work/life balance. I am not a parent, but I know the maternity leave policy is also amazing. "

"Benefits are really amazing. Company overall is super flexible (I can't speak for departments like CS where there are probably required hours/shifts.) Would like to see more women in leadership positions, but that is a focus going forward. "

"The company overall is very large, with has some excellent employee resource groups and solid benefits (including 401k, but no match). They recently increased their parental leave time, up to a total of 16 weeks off paid.
It's harder to move around between departments and get promoted than you'd expect for such a large company, but can be done if you seriously hustle and do a ton of internal networking.
It's a good place to work if you want something stable, but the company isn't on the cutting edge in terms of other big tech players."

"My feelings are mixed. I had a wonderful team and an incredibly supportive manager and whip-smart peers. However, about a year ago that all changed. Senior leadership turnover, competent & creative peer departures. What was left was a senior leadership boys network, hostile environment and simply put, confusion. Very few senior women left. Sad."

"Lots of opportunity. I never saw any gender-based discrimination, though the C-suite is still extremely male-dominated. Work hard and put yourself out there but don't expect anything to be handed to you. Overall, I really enjoyed working there."
