Pros

Good pay/benefits work life balance Some interest projects to work on Remote work

Cons

Doing things quickly is praised above correctly. Constant shift in direction. Employee centric culture touted and practiced... until the business is struggling All I heard through 2022 is how resilient the company is and how we've had downshifts before and come out of it swinging. Upper management definitely stressed we should not be worried.... and then I was laid off with %20 of my colleagues.
