- Allows you to work remotely - Coworkers are good people trying their best for the most part

Cons

- Very toxic overwork culture - Bad processes and lack of coherence in the team, leading to rushed delivery and work - Lack of vision despite constantly trying to push narratives of having a grand plan - Lots of bizarre infighting and poor direction in the leadership - Weird funny guy | main character syndrome in company leaders that add little to no value to most conversations - Covert sexism/racism is also an issue from some interactions with leaders - Management likes to micro-manage

Pros

Customer Support are literal superheroes keeping the product alive. Cool tech and vision.

Cons

Terrible pay compared to industry. Terrible quotas (15% of the company made quota, they cancelled club 2x in a row) Product stability No HR / employee support Terrible benefits. Many people use their spouse’s benefits. Stock grants are garbage now. Are we ever going to IPO? “We’re not a hardware company” and we don’t get paid on HW except our entire lives revolve around it. Zero postsales support. You’d better like living in a datacenter, doing your own installs, and everything. They love playing games with expenses.
