Business Outlook

Pros

Remote, flexible, and good pay. Also a great place to work on a modern tech stack. Never really had a problem taking PTO. A ton of talented engineers.

Cons

Feels like we are constantly putting effort into the wrong things, also seems like leadership has no idea what it takes to drive this ship from a technical perspective. The initiatives they are pushing + recent layoffs + hiring freezes + pauses on promotions and raises is leading to burnout. From a day to day basis there is a lot of noise, on-call is a nightmare and it's hard to estimate work accurately because of it all. Best word I can use describe the work culture is "reactive". Little growth and movement within company as an IC.
