Pros

Good salaries. Interesting work. Remote work allowed. I made friendships that have lasted over the years. Great benefits in general

Cons

Absolutely no work life balance. I was told to make sure I had my phone next to me at night so I could wake up and answer any email that would come in the middle of the night. I was even told that I had too many personal activities outside of work and that was unacceptable. Even though I had this in writing and I reported it to HR, nothing never happened about it.

Pros

Nine years of complex engineering challenges and professional growth. Strong camaraderie with talented colleagues across various engineering teams. Opportunities to work on high-impact projects and scalable infrastructure. Gained significant experience in complex system architecture and troubleshooting.

Cons

Abrupt end to a nine-year tenure without adequate transition or transparency. Heavy reliance on an aging, legacy tech stack that hinders innovation. Contradictory AI strategy: leadership mandates aggressive adoption while refusing to fund the necessary compute and tools for teams to actually implement it. Extreme short-term focus on EPS maximization at the direct expense of long-term stability and product health.
