      Pros

      - Salary - Bonuses - Fundamentals of DBS can be helpful if not mindlessly applied

      Cons

      - No vision i.e. no one believes in the roadmap - Incapable to deliver: projects constantly canceled, delayed, etc. - Toxic leadership with 100% turnover in the last few years - Zero culture besides the idea of being together at the same physical location - Ruthlessly forcing employees back to the office regardless of personal situation - Constant re-orgs and lay-offs - Very demanding leadership blind-sided everyone by relocating all of engineering to India (hundreds of jobs impacted) - Dwindling revenues and profits - Mass exit of all talent in the last 2 years with new leadership - Stifling processes - Zero interest in talent and advancing employees careers
