Pros

Flexible working environment Some great people to work with

Cons

- Churn- reorgs and strategy changes every 6 months, like clockwork. - No will to win- comfortable being #3 or #4-- could be a stronger competitor with smart investments, but too worried about short term profits... on the path of running the business into the ground. Seems like they keep mediocre players and drive away or let go talented people. The effects are beginning to be seen on the business. - The CEO thinks that she is an expert at everything, and is clearly not. Micromanages rather than trusts the subject matter experts and leadership that she has in place- frustrating, demoralizing and dumb. You are expected to smile and agree with her, always. There is no tolerance for questioning or debating strategy, even when it doesn't make sense. - Cheap to employees- raises, bonuses and benefits are below par - If you're not part of the inner circle (and to be honest from Taiwan or Japan), you're not going to get far. No culture around promoting from within. - HR is unresponsive and clearly doesn't care about the employees

Pros

Good people, solid benefits, not very stressful.

Cons

You will never, and I mean never, get a meaningful raise or a promotion at this company. It is a place for coasting, not growing. Leadership cares more about looking like an AI company than anything else.
