Pros

- Great WLB. - Good pay. - Good benefits. - Nice mission (if we actually paid attention to it).

Cons

- Company had a soul, it's lost now. - Reorg after reorg, but only in the lower levels. - As the title says, "leadership principled" managers are here now. Incompetent people that can't write a freaking test stay because they play the politics game. The more vocal, passionate engineers are rated below expectations because those FAANG managers have an ego. - Company moves like a handicapped turtle, so the competition is eating our lunch. - Sometimes the focus is music, sometimes the focus is crypto, and sometime it's AI. Square and Cash App lag behind while those other get sorted out.
