Thank you for the review. Over the past year, our leadership team has worked to mitigate the impact of various shifts in our business. There’s a limit to what can be shared broadly in situations like this, and we understand the unfortunate frustration that this can create. That said, we truly value your feedback and are committed to being as transparent as possible to help our employees understand the rationale behind difficult decisions and all the tradeoffs considered.

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.
