Pros

Nothing much here, you might get a chance to work on toy projects

Cons

The revenue predictions from the past many quarters have been bad and as a result the bonus payout is sometimes 50%. They reward people in a very unfair manner and people who nod their head to everything are in good books. They organize offsites and spend money on hotels and lunches, but they fail to keep bonus portion of the salary in full. This kind of management has led to many people leaving the company

Pros

Harder and harder every day to find positives, unfortunately. Used to have a good work life balance, decent off-sites, great managers and co-workers. CEO is slowly but surely destroying the company culture and making it both a tedious and chaotic place to work.

Cons

RTO has cost the company a large amount of important and long standing employees, with no ability to replace them. US teams have been without EMs for 6 months - 1+ years, and are losing Product Managers as well.
