Pros

Any pros this company had are leaving quickly

Cons

Read the reviews and look at the trend of negative reviews. They are true! The writing is on the wall. The CFO left, the CEO left, we now had a forced closure after a holiday where employees could either use PTO or take the time off unpaid. They require us to work 50-60 hours per week for extended periods of time but then when it is nice to work a straight 40 they start cutting hours. You are no longer an employee, but a number. Good people are making the right move and leaving the company with more to come.

Pros

I work with diverse and supportive people. Teams and leaders demonstrate the will to respond to worker needs with kindness and respect. On the operational level, teams are highly flexible and adapt quickly to changes when provided proper support. Work-life balance is high priority for the people I interact with.

Cons

The company has difficulty holding on to talent in tech fields since a good chunk of the focus has to be allocated to art/design and production instead. CEOs come and go every few years, leading to instability. For some teams, the process remains overly complex and inefficient because of misalignments between leadership/engineering and ops team users. No formal humanist policy around AI & robotics yet.
