Pros

- A lot of space to grow - Genuinely amazing engineers - Office location

Cons

- Chaos in how my team operates, middle management seems to be lost sometimes, decisions are always made in a timely manner - New CEO's "operating principles" don't seem to be a good fit for an enterprise-focused company, prioritizing moving fast over anything else - Aging in-house solutions make it hard to get work done quickly - Good WLB, unless you have to work with people across the globe. US employees need to learn how to work with people across timezones

Pros

There's real enduring culture where people care about doing really good work. The culture is friendly with strong camaraderie amongst the individual employees, and managers try to do right by their reports.

Cons

Quarterly reorgs, quiet role reductions, and slowly stripping away benefits has made morale worse than ever. It may have been worthwhile if the business was getting better, but it's pretty flat and attrition is very high. With the introduction of the new CEO, Dan Rogers, there's been a clear shift to hard capitalism and people as numbers. Problems have been solved in short-sighted ways, causing discontent even within the leadership ranks. The company was losing some steam beforehand, but now it's "a ship trying to make a sharp turn and keeling over, just barely not capsizing".
