Pros
Decent pay for mid level company
Cons
Any pros that may have existed with this company have disappeared. It is no longer even really a tech company, it is a bitcoin ETF that uses their BI business as collateral to obtain loans to buy more bitcoin. The BI business has taken a backseat, so engineers won't be working on anything particularly interesting here. The new CEO seems to be an empty suit with an MBA with no vision for innovation, and only knows how to cut costs to improve the balance sheet. He has also mandated coming into the office 4 days a week, which should make MicroStrategy an automatic disqualifier for any talented engineers looking for work in 2024. The bonuses and pay raises have essentially halted, and the workload has increased significantly per employee due to the massive layoffs that occurred earlier in the fall. I would be surprised if this company exists in 5 years.
