Pros

* Adopting new technologies really fast - its great place to learn for new developers and uplift their career. * Open culture; politics are not promoted within most of the teams.

Cons

* Strategy is somewhat weak. Sometimes builds stuff with tight deadlines without a proper understanding about real usage etc and throw away after sometime wasting so much of resources. * Deadlines are too short - affects work-life balance of many developers. This as worsen with the AI-era and some leads expect complex work done within days.

Pros

Cultivates a highly collaborative environment surrounded by exceptional technical talent. Employees enjoy genuine autonomy and the flexibility needed to own their work-life balance on a day-to-day basis.

Cons

Since the acquisition, strategic focus has pivoted toward short-term cost optimization at the expense of long-term vision. This is most evident in recent layoffs that eliminated critical, highly technical talent that will be incredibly difficult and expensive to replace.
