Pros

I had the opportunity to work with great developers and managers. Even during trying times, team mates would always support each other. There's also a constant desire to knowledge sharing, especially within the iOS team. If you're interested in working on AI skills, this could also be a good place. Good payment as well.

Cons

A lot of layoffs, constant anxious inducing environment because of that. Unceasing changes in leadership, which leads to not also the so said layoffs, but also changes in product requirements, a lot of development crunch and pressure in assuring features are released at a certain time. If this is your type of work, go for it. It wasn't the best for my mental and physical health,

Pros

Remote environment, helpful ICs, good tools, decent education budget. Before 2025 the culture was good.

Cons

After PENN leadership took over company outlook is very bleak. Due to incorrect decisions, and lack of guidance or proper vision every quarter is failing. Layoffs are done on a quarterly basis, which has ruined morale. Due to layoffs and fear led culture work life balance isn’t there, it’s a very top down company now. C-suite and senior leadership is very bloated, leading to a very top down micro management style culture.
