Pros

Good company mission Interesting product domains Some great people, largely from acquisitions

Cons

Frequent layoffs and reorgs Don't seem to value people (a bit ironic given the mission) Senior leadership would clearly prefer to have robots instead of employees Pay is just ok Cumbersome review process that feels like nothing more than collecting data for the next round of layoffs

Pros

As a person, I felt well taken care of by my management chain. We were encouraged to explore and be vocal and I never felt micromanaged.

Cons

- Questionable payment structure for ICs (no bonus plan) - Leadership doesn't do much of anything but takes all of the credit while the rest of us get laid off - Like most companies run out of Austin, it's a cash grab at the top while ICs do all of the work with little direction
