Pros

Well-established company with decent benefits and slim chances of ever going under

Cons

Since the stock price took a huge hit due to Revenue reports in 2024, culture has majorly shifted to become more blame-based and a lot of people have recently been put on pretty performative PIPs and then let go (with zero severance!) even when all PIP action items were adequately fulfilled... generally is a worse place to be now than a couple of years ago and many people are leaving

Pros

Supportive people, a strong culture, and meaningful flexibility are the biggest positives. I've had the chance to work with thoughtful colleagues who care about doing good work and helping each other succeed. There are solid opportunities to learn, build relationships across teams, and contribute in a way that feels impactful.

Cons

Workloads can be heavy during busy periods, and priorities can sometimes shift quickly (which is expected in growing companies)
