Pros

Remote work makes it easy to have a personal life. Not often very busy. Great early RSUs although refresh grants get lower and lower every year.

Cons

All of the leaders who knew what they were doing or who had any vision for the company have left. Chief People Officer just left after company survey results came back. They are not good. Lots of in-fighting in teams and between teams. They just move problem managers to other teams and give them more reports. Leaders do not agree on priorities. People are getting burned out in short time because everything is a fire. Recognition is just a dangling carrot with no substance. There was vision when I started here. It went out the door with some great leaders in 2022.

Pros

Remote work that’s it. No pros other than this!

Cons

Where to even begin? - There is only one person in the entire Apac region to handle the entire brand marketing functions ( talk about being understaffed) - Pathetic people to work with. Only interested in gossiping and spreading rumours. - zero benefits for Indians - zero respect for Indians - leadership is a BIG JOKE - Incompetent team
