Pros

Salaries and benefits are OK.

Cons

Where to begin... workload is outrageously high as the preference is for lean teams to stretch people as much as possible. There is a huge paranoia about remote working. Zero trust from management which results in micro managing and an unnecessary number of meetings. The arrogance of the exec team is off the charts. They care very little about the well being of employees despite what you read on the website. Don't be fooled. The leaders operate in an almost Draconian fashion and continue to do so despite feedback being provided in engagement surveys. They simply do not care.

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".
