Pros
Work life balance Some wonderful coworkers and very bright people Interesting problem space
Cons
Leadership, especially senior, is impossible to please. Top down orders are given with little insight to the actual work and problems to be solved. Middle management runs around at the whim of senior management, dismantling teams roadmaps every couple months, and then asking why things aren’t done, done quicker, or done differently. It’s impossible to succeed when there is ever changing guidance on what should be worked on. Many talented people leave due to this. Clear favoritism by management - very cutthroat environment - finger pointing, shifting blame. It is too bad, because the majority of people are great to work with and just want to do their jobs well, and the minority is ruining the rest of our work lives.
