Pros

Most of the people I worked with were wonderful, smart colleagues.

Cons

Low pay. Constant layoffs, restructuring of the business, and loss of talent. Silos. Political and backstabbing the further you get to the top of the food chain. Lack of career progression and advancement opportunities even when you deliver and exceed expectations. Toxic culture. Trying to be a tech company forever which has been in vain. Churn and burn culture where leadership will look to cash out as soon as they can.
