Pros
There are incredibly smart, well-intentioned people across the company who care about building something meaningful. You can take on real ownership, learn quickly, and have an impact if you’re proactive. Some teams collaborate well and push toward the right outcomes despite the noise.
Cons
Leadership instability and constant shifts in direction have become defining challenges. Priorities change abruptly, context is often limited, and there isn’t a stable product vision for teams to align to. Middle management is still developing and struggles with delegation, communication, and creating predictable operating rhythms. Expectations around output can be unrealistic and aren’t matched with clear planning or resourcing, which leads to burnout, avoidable churn, and a gradual erosion of trust.
