Pros

Excellent colleagues who are willing to collaborate to get the job done

Cons

Executive leadership shuts down constructive feedback if it does not align with their pre-conceived notions. They talk about data but only look for data that confirms what they want to see. When they do see problems, all of which are fixable, but are too focused on holding on to their position and hoping that one of their peers gets blamed for any mistakes before they do. They frequently put blame on each others' teams.

Pros

• Decent benefits • Some good individual contributors and colleagues.

Cons

• Extremely high workload — regularly expected to work 60-80+ hours per week • Constant scope changes with unrealistic expectations and impossible deadlines • Upper management was disconnected and showed little concern for employee well-being • Highly political environment where internal politics often outweighed actual performance • Mass layoffs that eliminated roughly half the engineering team, followed by offshoring many roles to India — even after many of us had dedicated 4+ years to the company • Extremely stressful and unsustainable culture leading to widespread burnout
