Pros

Good benefits and time off Flex time Nice office space Stock options Some great people Cool product Work life balance

Cons

Very corporate even though they like to pretend otherwise Political with a good share of passive aggressive people Unorganized hr department No upward movement No real diversity Bad directors and management will stay forever because sr leaders don't want to admit they made hiring mistakes Low morale Individual contributors disappear .. Many times to cover tracks of manager Managers do not get reviews from direct reports Complete lack of organization across departments due to leaders who can't can't seem to get it together Overall this was ok for a minute , but has honestly been one of the most professionally unfulfilling, unmotivating places I have worked

Pros

Great culture. People are humble.

Cons

In some teams engineers have to find projects themselves instead of waiting for roadmap which is good also but sometimes frustrating.

Pros

Good work. Passionate people. Good product. Remote.

Cons

Some bad managers. They lost their footing resulting in lack of company vision. Struggled to find working styles that elevated the company (they wanted to grow yet operate like a start up)
