      Meaningful mission overshadowed by eroding meritocracy

      Pros

      A meaningful mission paired with the opportunity to tackle complex, large-scale engineering problems.

      Cons

      -> Relationships now outweigh skills, talent, and actual results — meritocracy feels increasingly eroded (who you are friends with is more important than anything else). -> People are often supportive to your face, yet act differently behind the scenes. -> Strong talent has either left, been pushed out, or burned out under unsustainable pressure. -> At the same time, the company missed the AI inflection point, prioritizing short-term optics over long-term strategy. -> I was laid off without explanation or reason or PIP, lost years of near-vesting equity, and received no severance.

      Favorite workplace so far, with some uncertainties about the future

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Best work culture I've experienced so far, colleagues are collaborative and understanding. Very supportive manager and team in helping you increase scope and impact (and compensation). also supportive in your career growth. Great work benefits. RSU refreshers are typically generous. Flexible working model (no RTO requirements), and flexible schedules (no one's going to be breathing down your neck or micro-manage your time).

      Cons

      Need greater product diversification (we only really have the one platform). Stock prices not doing so well. Some perks are going away (PinCon/KnitCon).
