Pros

Good support from my direct manager, good local team

Cons

Horrible upper level management, to get jobs done, need to bother and pester overseas teammates. LOTS of layoffs and horrible upper decision makers.

Thank you for your feedback—we’re glad to hear you feel supported by your direct manager and local team. As we continue to grow and evolve, we remain committed to listening to employee concerns and improving processes and decision-making to better support our teams. Last year, we made some difficult decisions to align our teams and resources with our generative AI strategy, and while we’re excited about the future, we understand the challenges this has brought to some. We truly appreciate your honesty and all your contributions to the team, and we wish you the very best.
