Pros

Pay, Food, Benefits, working with cool people

Cons

Too many 'games' to play to do 'well' as in managing the optics like brand and appearance to upper management. Doing great work doesn't mean you will be rewarded unless you also play the 'game'. Those that don't get thrown under the bus in performance reviews or layoffs.

Pros

The total compensation packages (base, bonus, and RSU) remain some of the most competitive in the industry

Cons

The "Year of Efficiency" has morphed into a permanent culture of "Hire to Fire." Onboarding is non-existent; you are expected to deliver high-impact results from day one without a grace period. Management quality is inconsistent, often prioritizing metrics over people. For IC5+ roles, the workload is unsustainable, requiring constant overtime. The lack of job security creates a "walking on eggshells" environment where you are perpetually worried about the next round of performance-based cuts.
