Pros

Good salaries. Few competent colleagues in every department. Leading AI adoption.

Cons

Extreme hire and fire culture. High attrition rates. Mass resignations every month. VPs and Heads bring in new changes every month not understanding the ground truth of how inefficient daily operations and processes are. And how internal politics is deeply rooted. One of the VPs was highly reluctant on receiving feedback on his decisions and approach in several meetings and all hands. Not healthy at all. People actively working on similar topics to gain credit and fight for ownership of projects. Business Operations team is deeply rotten with active politics and favouritism. Most employees are burning 10+ hours including weekends. People get tagged on the weekends and get slack messages on weekends from leadership consistently. Noticed several employees taking burnout leaves. Employees in probation are usually under extreme stress every single day. Avoid this company at all costs if your mental health is important to you
