      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Work life balance Office is amazing There are still some very smart engineers depending on your team/department

      Cons

      It has turned into a PiP factory Leadership is more concerned with shipping features than making sure they are actually functional/good AI has invaded Datadog bad, everything you do anywhere at the company will be AI related. There are mandates that all teams spend at least 1/2 their time working on AI efforts, no exception AVOID infrastructure monitoring, logs, security departments
