Pros
- Amazing benefits (sabbatical in the US every four years, week off between Xmas and New Year's, employee stock purchase program) - Tons of opportunities for working in different locations, on different products, for different groups within the company. I've been able to work in four locations on multiple continents on many products in many groups and always been able to keep growing in every new role. - Fantastic customers who produce amazing, amazing things with our products! - Our mission is to Help Customers Imagine, Design, and Create a Better World. It's meaningful and is really what we try to do every day!
Cons
- Because of the sabbatical and "week of rest", fewer vacation days throughout a typical year in the US. - Like many publicly traded companies, the stock market can directly impact training, hiring, spending so tight times can be more frustrating
