Pros

Some pockets still have good people and good work

Cons

Exec team is weak and doesn't get along. Market position is as challenged as ever. Re-org, inertia and tech debt, the company about the least agile it as ever been, against competition that is the most well funded, nimble and capable as ever. It's a tough combination that it's difficult to see a clear way out of this. Most solutions are months to years away.

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.
