Pros

looks and feels positive and promising for few years

Cons

There are many negtive comments already there already detailed what the tech leaders are, but it takes time to find out, some evidences: Incompetency can be verified by numbers like the AWS costs, at least 90% are just wasting money, and it's there for years, the infrastructure are in such a mess, no one knows how many RDS clusters are costing mils every month. When there is a problem the tech leads will try to use video/voice calls, because sending texts like slack/emails/jira will leave evidences that they can't say "I didn't mean ..." You keep trying, keep failing, and will eventually find out it's determined long time ago, that you are just a tool, they steal your ideas/code and let someone of their own to implement with actual permissions ... but no one tells, because it's secretly done by secret undertable private group.

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.
