Good place to be for career growth and learning.

Overall it is a great place to work in. Some managers try to think out of the box resulting in stressed work life balance and lot of replanning happens thereby.

Hire and fire startups and people

Western digital acquires startups without any business plan or road map. Once acquired, they hardly invest in people or product. The acquired division always runs in a silo. Never integrated with the parent company. The higher management just talks about revenue without addressing what they need to do to get there. After a year, they will sell the product and people to a minor player. And 50 to 60 percent employees are laid off. Make sure you join a company that values you.

Pros

None

Cons

Lack of transparency from management. Employees are always kept in dark.

Productive and fun

Based on the interest, tasks can be challenging. Good work life balance. Enough oppurtunities to climb up the ladder till 10-12 years of experience after which will have to switch to manegerial ladder.

Execution, execution and always execution without innovation

Nothing much is happening in terms of innovation or creativity. Management believes in releasing the product quickly and be the first to market. Quality is compromised on lot of areas.

Pros

Decent Compensation

Cons

Repeated boring jobs

Fun place

- Leaves depends on manager, but are usually flexible - You get option of WorkFromHome - High workload. We would need to extend hours in office if work not complete, but flexity to login from home available.
