Pros

Great culture, great Carlsbad campus and passionate employees and leaders. There are fire drills just like at any company but everything else about this company makes up for it. The people are their most important asset and leadership understands that.

Cons

Occasional growing pains... but that's a good problem to have. Just like any large company there could always better communication across the functions.

Pros

Good work-life balance with flexible scheduling

Cons

Over the past several years, the company has lacked a clear long-term strategy, resulting in frequent reorganizations, shifting priorities, and multiple rounds of layoffs. Decision-making often feels reactive rather than strategic, creating uncertainty and making it difficult to execute long-term plans. Internal processes can also be overly complex, slowing down work and reducing efficiency.
