Great products, poor management
Pros: Fantastic consumer products; strong brand; commitment to strong values as a company; great opportunity to work on major products that have a global impact
Cons: Lack of any management training means a lot of very poor managers who don’t know how to groom employees; lack of process and lack of strong leadership; top-down management approach which leads to disempowering workers; lack of upward mobility within the company; lack of diversity in leadership; HR is more concerned with protecting the company than representing the employees; regressive policies when it comes to working from home, new parents; poor benefits (health, dental etc) compared to other companies in the Bay Area; terrible commute; low salary when compared to other companies in the Bay Area
