Pros

Was once a great company with a clear vision. Some incredibly smart people work here.

Cons

Leadership has cleaned house, which led to pushing out many top individual contributors. Batches of layoffs every year for the past few years. Priorities change on the daily, no real clear direction. Many departments across the company can’t seem to stabilize before upper management throws yet another massive undertaking of a project with unrealistic deadlines. Morale is at an all time low, work loads are at an all time high.

Pros

Work life balance is great if you just chill. Lots of down time Unlimited PTO 401k match

Cons

Everything. Leadership is awful as they are slave drivers and lay off people and say it’s “performance” related
