Pros
As an engineer, the problems we solve are very interesting and at high-scale.
Cons
Crackdown in terms of metric-oriented developer productivity, but there is little accountability given to the product org setting the vision for the company. Pendo's offering is disjointed and the unclear PMF is more and more seeming to fall on engineering's shoulders as a perception of lack of output. It is entirely understandable to increase productivity with the industry pacing with that velocity, but that needs to be measured by outcomes, not inputs. And outcomes are a product of the team as a whole. Much of the industry looks like this, but I think the current sourness at Pendo is this has come at the expense of what was once a top-tier culture in the industry. One that was both highly productive and motivating. But unscrupulous decision making and leadership's lack of interest in addressing feedback has unfortunately made Pendo an uncertain place to work.
