Pros

At first it's great. The transition time when you start means you get roughly two weeks to do nothing. Its really easy to guess everyone's next move here, so no surprises is a pro. You will likely be smarter than your direct boss (in a line of about 5 bosses), so getting your way is pretty easy as well if you have a gift of gab. The chef is really good.

Cons

The company is one of the most dishonest, disloyal, and overall worst all around to work for. People who spent years building things there have been dropping like flies the second they question upper management. The company feigns interest in your ideas until they like them, in which case they become the companies ideas, and you will get no credit whatsoever, and you will watch as your boss tells the whole company about their great new idea. Management will very readily lie to your face and turn around and do the opposite. Beyond that, the tech stack is indeed a dumpster fire. The management is ever changing and makes no sense. Everyone walks on eggshells now so there is no more honesty. Everyone is scared for their job and therefore does slightly more than the bare minimum just to stay afloat.

Pros

Strong onboarding experience and initial support from leadership Clear expectations and alignment during the first few months Positive, collaborative team environment early on Opportunity to learn and grow in a fast-paced environment Supportive culture prior to leadership changes

Cons

Significant decline in overall team experience after leadership transition Director stepped into the role without direct experience in the function, leading to gaps in effective management Leadership initially presented as supportive, but this did not reflect long-term behavior or management style Constant and frequent changes to priorities, expectations, and processes, creating instability and lack of structure Efforts to remain adaptable, positive, and supportive during ongoing changes felt taken advantage of rather than recognized Inconsistent and contradictory feedback — verbal feedback was consistently positive, while written documentation did not align Lack of clarity around performance expectations, making it difficult to understand what success looked like Noticeable shift in management behavior and communication over time, particularly toward the end of tenure Concerns around being managed out rather than being supported or developed Attempt to initiate a Performance Improvement Plan (PIP) that broadly covered the entire scope of responsibilities, rather than specific, actionable areas for improvement Misalignment between day-to-day performance feedback and formal performance concerns raised Perceived favoritism toward newer team members, specifically white male employees Observed comments and behaviors that felt culturally insensitive, particularly in reference to offshore (India-based) team members, creating concerns around inclusivity and respect Overall lack of transparency, consistency, and equitable treatment in performance management
