Pros

Remote work. Smart coworkers. Good base salary.

Cons

Total comp declining significantly for multiple reasons, including imploding stock. Clueless management that no longer believes in company values. Sexist managers. Lots of silent layoffs, along with high turnover from top performers who already jumped ship. Some low performers who work very few hours and have very low impact/results but get paid just as well as top performers.

Pros

OK pay or benefits in the market. Fully remote. Still is trying to frame itself as a big player.

Cons

Leadership went from being collaborative, communicative, and transparent, to being mercurial, secretive, and out of touch with the actual work. OBSESSSES over your AI usage metrics - even if AI doesn't help you and slows you down. The current layoff in progress was communicated poorly and not planned at all. And now they want us to adore the leaders and the company? Cultish vibes. We went from a company that plans ahead to a company that reacts.
