Horrid culture

Pros

Good technology stack in my opinion for my skills

Cons

Horrible culture... fired 1600 people and communicated it as a "win" (we had a great year record sales revenue bla bla bla and oh we will be firing 1500 ppl as part of that) Part that shocked me most: Told that people were fired based on colleague feedback, so in fact it was us workers who were responsible for our colleagues/friends being fired Separate con: 3 days in office every week
