Pros

Flexible work from home policy, enthusiastic employees (who unfortunately are treated like trash by SLT and ELT.)

Cons

If it's not completely obvious to you which of the reviews on here were written by current Cheetah Digital employees through prodding by superiors, it should be. You'll be told in interviews bad reviews are a result of "layoffs when the company was acquired." Notice the date on these negative reviews. The executive leadership team is made up of some of the worst people I've ever worked with not only professionally but morally as well. They will suck your soul out. There is an obnoxious amount of people on the "senior leadership team" (lower than the executive leadership team) essentially made up of selfish mid-career lackeys who believe sending people spam emails for giant corporations for a living is as important as saving lives. They will throw you under the bus at a moment's notice to appease the abhorrent leadership. Stay away.

Pros

The office is near the subway.

Cons

Horrible management. Internal communications are a joke. HR is almost non-existent. Marketing is abysmal. Transition since acquisition has been horrible. Morale is down. Pay mediocre. Office politics are insane. Onboarding process is a nightmare. Company morale is suffering.
