Pros

- work life balance is unbeatable - work can be fun and rewording - i've had 3 different managers and have had a positive experience with all of them - no micromanaging - free coffee and food at the office even for remote employees - WFH internet reimbursement - tons of free swag

Cons

leadership handled the lay offs horribly and they have been very tone deaf after it happened. Apart from the people that were laid off, an entire department received demotions for no reason, they just couldn't afford to have those people in that salary band any longer. I personally received a demotion even though all of my reviews have been meets and exceeds and I was on track for a promotion the following month. My demotion actually displaced me from product to operations and when I asked HR what my path back to PM would be (since this is what i was hired for, i was doing very well at it, and i also did not want to do operations) they told me i'd have to wait for another PM position to open and apply and interview like everyone else. This was very disheartening and demotivating because I went through 5 rounds of PM interviews to get hired initially.
