Pros

Autodesk has taken a sharp turn for the worse. The recent decision to lay off 9% of the workforce while keeping only low-paid "executors" shows a clear prioritization of short-term cost-cutting over long-term innovation and talent retention. Instead of investing in skilled professionals and a sustainable future, leadership seems more interested in appeasing active investors through superficial savings. Morale is at an all-time low, institutional knowledge is walking out the door, and there's no clear strategic vision beyond trimming expenses. Unless there's a major course correction, it's hard to see a positive path forward.

Cons

Flexible hours, $1K wellness reimbursement
