Pros

Ability to work for a globally-recognized brand in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Cons

Post-IPO environment is a far cry from the old way of doing things. This used to be a company that prided itself on the way it took care of employees, but now it's all about making quarterly numbers while senior management foolishly pisses money away on their own personal ventures and hobbies. All of this, despite a record number of transactions forecast for this year.

Pros

Great co-workers, some leaders with integrity from Al Kelly time, great benefits, 401k, what used to be great WLB.

Cons

-Incompetent CTO and leadership, specially at the Sr Dr/ VP level, moved from Msft in troves. -No focus on product/features delivery using AI, rather useless AI tools to track productivity (LOC and other laughable outdated metrics). -All Optics, no innovation, decades behind Fintechs like Stripe in innovation. -Extreme toxic culture and politics at leadership level.
