We want to do what we can to support employees and managers are a major part. Radical candor is an important piece to our culture. We strive to be open and honest in the giving and receiving of any kind of feedback with each other.

Pros

Great coworkers to be around, great benefits, work-life balance was perfect before the middle management layoffs. Collaborating with teams is constant and helpful for the design process.

Cons

They cut the research team, relying on designs to take on that plus end-to-end products, which leaves to heavy work loads and late nights. Deadlines are rather quicker than usual since the reorg.
