Pros

My team are fantastic people, particularly the other ICs. Working remotely is also a win.

Cons

I have so much to say that it’s hard to get it all out. This place has absolutely broken me - I’m a shell of a person since I started working here four years ago. I’ve gone from being a top performer in my team, to absolutely fearing for my job every single day. The scaremongering from leadership, especially the CPO, has led to my mental health decline. The sad thing is that when I started, this company had a culture we all loved, we were thriving as teams and individuals. Since the new CPO has come in, so many changes have occurred. She puts it down to the company growth - which in fairness can’t be denied. That said, what has company growth got to do with the removal of unlimited PTO, week of rest, RSUs, decent pay, better middle management, etc. I’m on the verge of calling it a day… sad thing is they probably wouldn’t care that they lose yet another top performer.

Pros

The teams you work with are phenomenal. The knowledge combination between an internal customer facing teams, engineering product development teams, and Sales are unmatched.

Cons

Excessive use of PIPs to oust employees after multiple high revenue launches, with no explanation, actual documentation, or factual data. Reviews have been adjusted to allow for terminations post pre-approved leaves. Salaries are a joke. You are always in a cover yourself mode 24/7. Management reviews are consistently a 2 or 3 out of 5 no matter what. If a team decides you aren’t in the group, management will put you on a “unofficial” PIP without telling you, in order to surprise you at a later date. Even if they are unfounded. Beware of possibility of negative backlash post launches. They will feel the need to assign blame ( such as for timelines or issues related to bugs). Regardless of performance or level of involvement. This is an enormous company with many large paths for career advancement. But micro management is rampant, leaving little room for doing the daily expectations of your actual role. This degrades your opportunities for career advancement.
