Unexpected Layoff

Pros

The work was really good, pay was as per the market standards and had some really smart people in the team. Loved every day of it while working for the company.

Cons

Frequent layoffs. I mean I hate the fact that the CEO is not at all positive in any of the town halls.

Poor leadership

Pros

I had an amazing team and an amazing manager. Many smart engineers. Pay was good (too good, can't match it easily).

Cons

Quarterly reorgs - most didn't affect the workers directly but multiple layoffs have happened in the past several years. Canned projects. The leadership doesn't seem to understand the market and shifts too often, wasting valuable resources. Certain genders and races are less likely to get promotions. Heavily biased. CEO and leadership has no business talking politics and officially espousing political viewpoints. CEO has a way of demoralizing the company with every speech he makes. No matter how good a quarter or a year was, it wasn't good enough. Diversity has a way of overlooking the best; distribution of the employees is skewed relative to local population. Quality team was mostly laid off; quality is BUILT into products, not tested in.
