Pros

None, really. Still here as I look for a meaningful job.

Cons

Clueless, "checked out" C-Team. it's clear they are here only because they got loaded up on RSUs (see SEC filings) when the CEO shuffle happened last year. There is zero product building, zero trust, zero confidence in the future. Almost all good folks have left. There are a lot of "LA people" pretending to do work. A part of me just wants to watch this circus implode. But I realize I am also rotting as I type this. sigh.

Pros

Work life balance is actually great. The people you work with are smart and generally fun to work with

Cons

Roadmap is very disorganized, you kind of have to assume you will work on any random project each day

Pros

Good benefits and good culture

Cons

Very AI focused with constant fear of layoffs by employees (based on my experience). Pay isn’t great, especially given the current cost of living. Poor communication and planning regarding updates and project rollouts.
