      Pros

      -The people were awesome -Ambiguous work environment (in a good way!) -Tooling was great, and working cross-functionally was easy remote -Shipped some awesome products -Internal mobility was great, really grew at the company

      Cons

      -Leadership (out of touch) -Forcing AI across EVERYTHING -Restructure was constant. Fear of layoffs heavy (and did eventually happen) -Work/life balance. Due to Slack, you're always on and was necessary to continue communicating after hours.

      Pros

      Great work environment. Lovely company. Doesn't feel evil

      Cons

      A lot of older technology and obsolete frameworks. Having to develop with ember made me feel like my relevant skills were atrophying.
