Pros

As of now, nothing. Before there was a company mission, leaders cared about employees, we believed in the products we were developing, and there was professional growth and great teams. Now, all of that is non-existent.

Cons

1. Leadership and company strategy keep shifting 2. There is no clarity on prioritization or expectations 3. Terrible office culture. Lots of bullying and finger-pointing 4. Multiple rounds of layoffs in a few months. Leadership seems to take these lightly and not think things through 5. No work-life balance 6. Burnout is very very common
