Pros

Good location. Hybrid work. Good technologies. Decent benefits.

Cons

I was working well on a generative AI tool for over one year until recent senior director came aboard. He likes to micro manage and he is the sole person to perform source control merges after peer reviews with no autonomy. Releases are rarely on time with poor plannings. I was recently let go by him for his reasons of unmatched skill set and short time working with me. My feeling he is discriminatory on my age and race. The company is not doing well recently and probably have to cut cost. The company is also treating me badly with severance package of 2 weeks for over 5 years of service. It is probably good to get off this sinking ship and not working along side with a micro-management director.
