Pros

Great coworkers Adequate pay Never had layoffs

Cons

It feels like the tech leadership is living in a different world than the engineers. They cite "10x productivity gains" from using AI - basically parroting Sam Altman's sales pitch - while not providing any real metrics to prove that. Now they're pursuing a new methodology for quality assurance, a radical departure that we have zero proof will be successful. Every time they hold a department meeting, we engineers talk to each other with extreme dismay at the decisions. Implementing RTO was never adequately justified. Seems like they're working on hunches and their own experience instead of hard data.
