      Pros

      There is plenty of potential, especially in Product because you can be your own customer and thereby really improving the product and the experience. Compensation structure is very competitive.

      Cons

      Some of the leadership is terrible unfortunately and full of dirty, extremely dirty politics. It goes beyond your performance which to them doesn't matter at all. What they care for is whether or not you appease them. Customer or product doesn't matter. A found a lot of ICs using the product but a large number of leaders don't have a clue about the product and use their power to force their ideas even if it doesn't make sense.

      Pros

      Relaxing culture. family first. Stock performance is generally good for the recent two years and huge benefit if you're eligible for ESPP. Stable product with large customer base means you get opportunity to work on project with real impact.

      Cons

      1. Blind push for AI and leadership expect unrealistic efficiency improvement 2. Layoff every year in Feb (2024, 2025, 2026) and sometimes can feel the tension in team 3. Legacy tech stack with isolated and fragile infrastructure. Developer friction is a real pain. You get random infra down every once a while and internal support becomes even worse since they started offshoring to LCOL area in 2025. 4. Hiring freeze in San Jose... just expect more layoff coming up + frequent meetings at night / early morning across regions
