Pros

- Work Life balance was good

Cons

- Leadership straight up LIES to your face, says there will be no layoffs then cuts off entire teams but calls it a "reorganization" - Not a lot of room for growth. There's a rather flat hierarchy so there's no incentive to be a better employee. - Any sort of curiosity or desire to move to other teams and work on other projects are never followed up when you ask management.

Pros

• Decent benefits • Some good individual contributors and colleagues.

Cons

• Extremely high workload — regularly expected to work 60-80+ hours per week • Constant scope changes with unrealistic expectations and impossible deadlines • Upper management was disconnected and showed little concern for employee well-being • Highly political environment where internal politics often outweighed actual performance • Mass layoffs that eliminated roughly half the engineering team, followed by offshoring many roles to India — even after many of us had dedicated 4+ years to the company • Extremely stressful and unsustainable culture leading to widespread burnout
