Pros

Decent benefits. If it wasn't for that, this place would've only got 1 star

Cons

Management is appalling. They have unqualified individuals who are very incompetent, small minded, and lack true leadership skills. They have their favorites who also lacks intelligence and let's them get away with everything. They don't practice what they preach, hates when you stand up for yourself, and will punish you the moment you challenge them to actually do their jobs. DEI is a joke. The only people of color that is welcomed there are the ones who lick their boots. They claim we're all a "family" and unfortunately I believed it. Never again. If you're on the outs, be prepared to get treated unfairly if you're not one of the management's pets.

Pros

Amazing corporate culture Leadership listened to engineering on tools, technology stack, etc Actual product ownership, including necessary input and control (instead of being told you own a product and then not given the necessary access or tools to maintain it)

Cons

Hiring process involved psychological screening with a lot of implicit bias, almost like an IQ test. On the plus side, I've been told they discontinued its use after that was pointed out.

Pros

You have kind co-workers and good benefits.

Cons

The strategic direction is unclear for many parts of the business. There is not enough transparency around hiring decisions - including who is still with the company and where there are opportunities for growth.
