Pros

- You get to work with some brilliant and friendly people.

Cons

- No job security. You can work there for 10 years with all positive impact reviews, and one morning you're terminated. - The culture is awful now. Not what it use to be. - There's a tremendous amount employees that are completely useless, along with Management. - Leadership not being present for weeks at a time, with constant reasons for missing days. - The company is still doing mass layoffs, however they are done in smaller numbers every month or two. Likely to avoid the negative press.

Pros

- Kind and talented co-workers - Generous AI token spend - Fairly transparent company (has been getting less transparent over the years) - Lots of opportunity for impact

Cons

- Product management discipline is quite lacking since the new CTO joined - Microsoft culture is adding more chaos and stress, and causing projects to actually go slower - Managers are afraid to tell the truth to Mikhail about the loopholes in engineering; they just want to look good, so they rush their teams to ship crap - Top engineering leaders are moving out of management roles or leaving the company - Tobi used to be far more involved in ensuring a high engineering bar, but seems to have handed over the reins to the new Microsoft regime
