Pros

The company, in theory, has good values. In a good economy, they have a good culture.

Cons

The company is struggling to reach key milestones that will take it to IPO. It is switching to a model that prioritizes cheap labor and shirks quality work. Recent layoffs of a large portion of RnD will certainly affect morale and the quality of its product for a long time to come. Also, base pay is below average, and total compensation is even worse since they valued the stock portion of compensation at 2021 hype levels that will never be reached.

Pros

coworkers, some benefits, not much else

Cons

Low pay, no movement for career growth, AI implementation training disguised as an improvement when you can see the support teams are being asked to train the AI in order for it to replace them, gaslighting from management that everything is fine when customers are extremely unhappy and only the front line workers have to deal with that anger day in and out, as others have reported critical thinking and feedback with genuine process improvements are not ignored, which would be bad, but literally punished. I am only here because I haven't been fired yet and I'm looking for something else in a challenging job market
