Pros

- salary is pretty good - remote work + flexible policy

Cons

- lots of people including managers are still answering slack messages during weekends and day offs - work is somewhat boring with no real challenging things - code base is a big mess, no organisation, poor documentation. - people are not really passionate by what they do. - some teams are really protective of the code that they own and won't let anyone touch it making collaboration really hard.

Pros

WLB Remote work (which is slowly ending). Strong ICs

Cons

Poor leadership vision, strategy, and execution. Rebranding products that already exist as net new to chase a headline. Unclear career growth unless you are internally connected to “the right people”. Middle management that is there to boost their career / repackage IC ideas as their own with zero credit. RTO rollout was botched leading to senior sellers leaving. Lots of toxic positivity and virtue signaling
