No career growth, your performance is based on anecdotes and speculation. Clearly a drive to IPO at all costs, cutting core engineers and adding more bloated VP positions. Everything is centered around outside optics and how the sale of this lucrative technology can be maximized. 10+ companies have been acquired in the last 2 years. Most of the technology has been piecemealed into other offerings and the original staff is treated like an afterthought. If you are anything but a new student you will likely digress coming here, so be prepared. More engineers would be walking out the door if the economy wasn't in shambles.
