Pros

Great benefits, generous time off

Cons

Seeing the upper management try to virtue signal was so cringe and painful, company was increasingly performative in trying to be politically correct, while fulfilling every tech bro stereotype imaginable

Pros

bright and enthusiastic engineers and strategy associates

Cons

CFO is a used car salesman who will pay lip service and talk a great game but is ultimately a self-serving charlatan who will work his team to death and throw everyone under the bus if it serves him. Can’t manage his time nor workload. CSO has no backbone to be a great “holistic” leader. Will be polling ad infinitum because he can’t make a decision to save his life. They pay lip service to DEI but ultimately don’t care when it really matters on an individual level. Very biased and politically toxic place.
