Pros

Highly intelligent and driven humans. Interesting mission and customers to work with.

Cons

Too many cooks (leadership) in the kitchen. Lots of red tape for a start up. Seems as if ICs are more interested in impressing leadership than they are in taking ownership of work. Culture seems to have deteriorated in 2022 and beyond.

Pros

Emotionally intelligent coworkers, great perks, respectable leadership

Cons

Egregious expense abuse/weak oversight around spending. The money pumped into culture building and perks was a little much and it led to a baseline entitlement amongst employees, it was strange watching money flow so freely into nonessential spending. Call me old school. Also it was 2022 and layoffs were a threat so when the inevitable RIF happened it really felt like they prioritized the post grad entertainment budget over the salaries of hardworking employees.
