Pros

The people (that are still left), this only applies to people before VP level.

Cons

Upper management doesn't care about the fact that they've made the environment undesirable for any developers that know their worth. They've already hit the tipping point where they don't have enough developers with the tribal knowledge of the system to recover from a server issue in less than 8 hours. Were a select few people still there that knew the system will, their last major outage would have lasted under an hour, instead they were down literally all day long.

Pros

You will have a front row seat to a lesson on how not to run a successful business.

Cons

Company culture has been gutted, compensation and benefits slashed, incompetent executive leadership, no future for the company. One of the worst places you could choose to work.

Pros

Learned a lot, amazing people (peers), still great leadership in the SRG. if you go, try and get in there.

Cons

The product is for the most part Trash. They have had some good ideas on where the product should go over the years but stubborn frat leadership refused to pivot and change against heavyweights like Linkedin and indeed. All the bad reviews you see now about Apollo, Irina and mass exodus of great talent is all true. But you can’t blame Irina for doing her job. The whole purpose of Apollo is to trim and clean up failing companies and sell them. This is on the leaders before they came in. If they had done their jobs there would be no Apollo. So In turn the culture and talent and all the other bad stuff came from that. Only place still that has awesome leadership is the SRG. Passionate and strong VP.
