Pros

For the most part, it's a great place to work. I am currently able to work on projects I find interesting that align with where I want to grow my career. Compensation is good, although it's still hard to afford living in Silicon Valley. I've found managers are far more likely to talk to you and discuss with you issues they may be seeing and try to avoid write-ups. For the most part, management will let you work the way you want in order to get the job done and will get you the resources you need.

Cons

CEO has tried instituting a return to office policy, but that also seems to have not been a huge deal. There was also a push to have everyone in the office at the same time. This may come up again as the company is getting bigger and having more demands from customers. There is also a generational issue with products that are starting to now cause problems.

Pros

Friendly coworker and positive working environment.

Cons

Communication between higher-level management and base-level employees could be more dynamic. The job security is not so good; there were multiple layoffs during the past year.
