Pros

- decent salary if you live outside of a HCOL area - remote work for individual contributors - good colleagues, if they were not yet laid off (but they will be, eventually) - if you are lucky and can create it for yourself, you can achieve a nice work/life balance

Cons

- layoff after layoff after layoff after... - overwhelming micromanagement from the C level - toxic mid level managers - if you don't play the political game, you won't progress, but will be laid off instead, no matter your output - putting all the eggs in the AI basket, with no backup plan

Pros

Working at Indeed Flex was a time I would never give back. I got the chance to work alongside some of the brightest and most driven people in the business. When I started, we had a lot of autonomy and trust in how our team could make a different and to try new things. I also had the room to grow within my career and promise of more opportunities down the line.

Cons

After my first two years, the company quickly shifted. Working at Flex in it's current culture is a competitive burnout factory where if you are not working yourself to the bone, you are not appreciated by upper management or respected. Be prepared to have your work unfairly scrutinized by people who do not understand your role, and to have any mistake you make immediately used against you. Flex was once a place of true open-mindedness and is now a place where the nastier you are, the more you are rewarded. Also, senior management will change company goals and restructure teams at least twice a year if and when goals aren't met. Which lead to constant confusion and rework.
