Pros

Compensation and highly intelligent co-workers.

Cons

Poor leadership, constant reorgs and restructuring, random layoffs with people just disappearing. You very rarely ever feel like you can finish a project without having your team impacted by layoffs or restructures.

Pros

Strong eng culture and decent WLB although has been getting rougher in recent months.

Cons

Management is in constant churn, hard to buy into a vision that changes every few months. Transparency culture is quickly evaporating and there is a push to inflate metrics like PR throughput which have no real impact on the product.
