Pros

It used to be one of the best workplaces in tech It used to be a cultural hub for the world

Cons

After the merger, it quickly became one of the most toxic workplaces in tech. Deranged midnight emails from the CEO with conflicting information about anything from return to office and being required to fly to San Francisco with no notice so he can personally review your code all the while he hops back on his private jet to fly to Austin. You think he’s going to reimburse you for flying cross country only to find out he isn’t there?

Pros

The company offers good benefits and company wide perks.

Cons

The Finance and Accounting department suffers from favoritism, nepotism, and poor leadership. Promotions and opportunities appear to be driven more by personal relationships than by performance, contributions, or expertise. The Accounting Controller demonstrates biased and unprofessional leadership, which has created a culture of low accountability and poor morale. High performers are often overlooked while favored individuals continue to advance despite limited contributions. The department relies heavily on outdated and manual processes that create inefficiencies and unnecessary work. There seems to be little urgency to modernize systems or improve operations. The culture also tolerates underperformance, with inconsistent expectations and accountability across team members. This can be frustrating for employees who value merit, professionalism, and continuous improvement.
