Pros

- the paycheck - some key people - though not all - the flexibility and autonomy for WLB

Cons

- lacking any sort of vision at all levels of leadership - no collective spirit, kool-aid is all gone - pushing AI so hard but focusing on the wrong things - executives are robotic and have no soul, no one wants to follow them

No Longer Employee First Company

Pros

Still some decent co-workers and benefits.

Cons

Trying very hard to play catch-up on AI, but barely anything to show. All former senior leadership has been gutted and replaced. Company no longer values its employees. Offshoring to remove HCOL employees. Benefits are slowly disappearing.
