Pros

- OK initial compensation if joined before 2022

Cons

- Incompetent and idiotic leadership - Since 2024 started multitudes of programs to agitate workers across the board to quit, to avoid layoffs/severance - Rapidly decreasing QoL such as reducing workers benefits and increasing costs (commute, parking, daycare) - Zero long-term career prospect, stingy when it comes to promotions, merit increases fall way behind of inflation - RSUs are fake monopoly money to boost compensation perception, no realistic plan to go IPO ever -Implemented RTO as a form of silent layoffs, 33% RIF shortly after -Gradually outsourcing its US workforce -Performance does not matter, only politics

Pros

Great insurance. Learning Stipends, etc

Cons

-Senior leadership only cares about what is new and shiny. -They treat AI like a religion. Forcing everyone to use AI for everything as though we don't realize that the end goal is to eliminate our roles - All Hands Meetings every month where Senior Leadership pats themselves on the back while ignoring any existing issues. - Support is treated like a necessary evil instead of a fundamental part of doing business. Would prefer to ship the roles overseas or replace with AI - Extremely high attrition for Senior Leadership.
