Pros
- A supportive and fun team at the IC level, including some middle managers who genuinely care about their employees - benefits are decent compared to similar companies
Cons
- Company has gone downhill due to poor senior leadership who’ve turned a once fun place to work into a toxic political environment where teams and individuals are pitted against one another - Innovative ideas keep getting shot down or severely constrained by leaders out of fear but with an activist investment firm coming in and now demanding innovation, leaders have been quick to place the blame for lack of innovation on those below in order to protect themselves - there is a growing lack of diversity at the senior leadership level that is now trickling down to teams due to leaders hiring from their own pool of candidates, rather than sourcing diverse talent in the broader market that can bring differing perspectives to the company
