Business Outlook
Pros
* still lots of great/smart people left despite mass layoffs and attrition * still plenty of interesting problems to solve and huge market opportunity
Cons
* decisions seem to be driven heavily by non-technical people who appear grossly uninformed about the state of the product * huge push to hire sales and marketing people while hemorrhaging engineering talent - why sell a product that doesn't even exist? * lack of focus on listening to and retaining key technical talent. this led to a huge amount of work being offloaded onto already resource-constrained teams. * mind boggling lack of transparency/clarity around layoffs. direct questions and feedback are met with non answers and platitudes
