Pros

Remote work, but returning to office over time

Cons

- Decision making - popularity contest - says one thing, does another - not people centric - daily whiplash culture (super reactive work life making it hard to accomplish anything) - ethics - poor leadership (Toby should ask for feedback for his directs and care about what is being shared) - product is terrible and not adjusting to customer needs, or internal needs
