      Pros

      Very cushy environment. Basically unlimited vacation time with the way "working from home" is treated. No real pressure to deliver anything.

      Cons

      There is no concept of failure. No ability to take risks. Ancient tech stack and lack of talent drives any high talent new hires to leave within 1 year.

      Pros

      Good work, lots of AI experiments, AI innovation, latest tech stack, Co-workers are very co-operative and helpful. Most AI tools are still unlimited.

      Cons

      Some teams are over-working due to smaller teams as a result of recent layoffs. Office perks (like catered food, snacks) are dwindling every quarter even though company wants every employee to be 3 days a week in office. Company wants 80 percent code to be generated by AI but no clear guideline how to achieve that.
