Pros

- You work on interesting problems on a day-to-day basis. - Engineers are very intelligent and are always willing to help.

Cons

- There is little to no mentorship available for junior engineers. - Huge emphasis on pushing code/features and little emphasis on creating durable software. - No clear path to growth within the company. It seems like promotion is given to those who are close with upper management.

Pros

Work life balance is actually great. The people you work with are smart and generally fun to work with

Cons

Roadmap is very disorganized, you kind of have to assume you will work on any random project each day

Pros

Good benefits and good culture

Cons

Very AI focused with constant fear of layoffs by employees (based on my experience). Pay isn’t great, especially given the current cost of living. Poor communication and planning regarding updates and project rollouts.
