Pros

- Great Culture / Some of the most amazing people I have worked with - Great Benefits - Lots of opportunities for career advancement & learning new skills/certifications

Cons

- Poor Management specifically forecasting future of the business/projects/new ventures. Example: Management overshot the iBuying business very badly and had unrealistic goals. - The process of implementing new systems/new ways of doing things was was hard to get up the ladder of command. Management had a vision and ignored lots of signs/concerns voiced by employees.

Pros

Generally the people I work with are great. They are supportive, creative, and work well as a team. Work-life balance is good, although some teams have more on-call than others.

Cons

- Senior leadership has determined that inflation need not be a factor when calculating raises. - Also, we're having record profitability! But also money is very tight and we all need to tighten our belts. - Our stock is down 50% this year, but you all need to suck it up, even though stock is a huge part of pay. - We don't care that you are getting a 30% effective pay cut this year. - Performance ratings are calculated on vibes before reviews are actually written. - We've started outsourcing heavily to Mexico and India. - "We need to raise the bar" ("Please work harder for the same pay") - Health benefits have eroded for several years. - Other benefits have never been adjusted for inflation. - AI is becoming like a cult. We've actually been told that the dream is to never open a code editor again, despite the technology not being remotely ready for that (and with no proof that it is less expensive or saves time).
