Pros

One of the good existing perks in my opinion is working from home policy. Again the HR is proposing to slash it all together. It seems to them office is empty and there is no feel and look that people are working. Back to 1980 we go!

Cons

The sad thing is that there is no HR department! HR is heavily biased ,They have formed stereotypes about certain people and started secretly undermining them. They mark very people they cannot work with. People who come trusting HR, only to find later that HR informed the harassing supervisor betraying trust of employee. there is absolutely no trust in HR and nothing is being done to restore it. Overall members of HR department are not approachable and even antisocial.

Pros

lots of room for autonomy, working on world's hardest problems, great culture, great people, great benefits.

Cons

always room for improvement in scheduling all hands meetings- (hard with so many people in the company), doing a LOT of things at once (generally good thing, comes with challenges)
