Pros

- Incredible exposure to cutting-edge technologies - Opportunity to collaborate with highly talented colleagues - Competitive salary packages and strong employee benefits - Regular company-sponsored social events that foster team bonding - Great environment for learning and upskilling with new tools and frameworks

Cons

Lacks work-life balance, with an unspoken expectation to be available 24/7. Employee efforts often go unrecognized. Promotions seem influenced more by favoritism than performance. Some managers lack empathy, and there’s a perception that if you're not in their good books, your position may be at risk. Layoffs have also been reported.

Pros

Individual team culture is good depending on leader. Unlimited PTO, good benefits.

Cons

Leadership is unclear in direction. Giving arbitrary guidance on AI usage or RTO without context. Innovation is dead, growth by acquisition is their playbook. This means almost annual RIFs and teams being overworked.
