Pros

Free lunch and a cool office

Cons

I can't begin to describe the absolutely failure of the entire SF sales team. I have never met more abusive leaders in my entire career. I'm genuinely at a loss for words at the level of toxic culture that the leadership team pushes down and blames ICs for. It seems like they pick a target to dislike until that person is fired and they move onto the next person instead of actually focusing on being a good leader. Feedback is never helpful or actionable, they are always spun as personal attacks because the managers are passive aggressive at best. It's insanely immature.
