Pros

I work on the technology division, specifically for generative AI applications. I work with a trans-national team of highly competent individuals who are as patient and understanding as they are knowledgeable.

Cons

Everything was really promising up until Q4 of last year, when "market trends" have convinced the higher ups of many abrupt changes that have led to layoffs and buy-outs. Our team is currently direly understaffed, and given changes in our work from home policy, I expect us to be even more understaffed in the months to come.
