Pros

At one point we were known for rigor and objectivity. There are still some projects you could get involved with where you can find that.

Cons

The executive leadership is obsessed with AI being able to patch the holes in the ship. Roughly half the company was either laid off or left voluntarily over the past year. Layoffs are sloppy and often remove key people, some of them who've been with the company for decades. Lack of empathy. Reptilian CEO. CEO's underlings are weirdly sycophantic given that the company is performing so poorly. The board changed the companies governing rules to allow the CEO to stay on even after the shareholders (employees) voted no to his seat on the board. Disgusting. Cozying up to gross vendors like Palantir to try to win MAGA $$$. It's gross and getting worse. Sad because I used to love it here.
