Pros

Great work and life balance Flexible schedule

Cons

Executives only focused on the almighty dollar. Massive headcount cuts made without any regard to what functions they were cutting, all the while the upper level executives make obscene amounts of money. Those remaining have to figure out how to pick up the pieces with what is left.

Pros

Nine years of complex engineering challenges and professional growth. Strong camaraderie with talented colleagues across various engineering teams. Opportunities to work on high-impact projects and scalable infrastructure. Gained significant experience in complex system architecture and troubleshooting.

Cons

Abrupt end to a nine-year tenure without adequate transition or transparency. Heavy reliance on an aging, legacy tech stack that hinders innovation. Contradictory AI strategy: leadership mandates aggressive adoption while refusing to fund the necessary compute and tools for teams to actually implement it. Extreme short-term focus on EPS maximization at the direct expense of long-term stability and product health.
