Brand name is kind of only plus thing. Insurance coverage is good. Hybrid and remote models.

Dislikes

PP is on cost cutting spree. And there were very less benefits to begin with it is becoming like any other it company. Too many levels and freq change in leadership in recent times. Cross team collaboration is not so good. If your team and manager are good then PP is good. it's hard to summarize because I have seen employee experience from going good to very bad.
