Pros

Some talented individuals trying to make a difference despite systemic issues.

Cons

Overly bureaucratic environment that slows progress. Engineering culture is weak, with limited technical direction or innovation. Leadership, including the CTO, lacks the skills and vision needed to build a strong engineering organization.

Pros

Good pay, good benefits and great office.

Cons

Poor hiring decisions, recent layoffs eliminated mostly remote employees because they are prioritizing in office employees, especially with recent investment in office. RIF was not at all based on performance which meant that some in office employees who don't know what they are doing got to keep their job. You have to suck up to management to get promoted and a lot of really good reps leave as a result of constant micro-management.
