Pros

Decent enough stability. Team autonomy on architecture and systems design

Cons

Recently start RTO even for employees with no coworkers in the same state. Most internal career advancement opportunities are regionally locked to India currently. In the last 3 years, earning a 4 out of 5 on my yearly reviews, I have only received a 1.5% merit increase, and received a ~5% bonus the last two years, which was just removed for all employees below my current grade.
