Pros

Interesting projects and products. Global footprint. A few talented individuals who continuously push forward and carry the rest of the team through tough times.

Cons

Insane amount of politics - everyone seems to have an opinion but only a few show accountability. Lots of team members who are “all talk no action”, leaving an incredible amount of pressure on the ones who actually produce outputs. The company rely on the heroics of a few individuals instead of teamwork, yet underperformers are allowed to cruise along without any consequences. Work life balance is non existent with massive work loads, long hours and late evening calls. Senior leadership is out of touch and extremely reactive - risks are escalated repeatedly but not addressed until they turn into critical issues. Management is demanding but doesn’t provide the necessary support to staff. Deadlines are not driven by meaningful objectives but by factors such as bonuses, and being able to tick things off the list. So rigid about the 3 days in the office but doesn’t put the same amount of effort into resolving more important issues. Benefits are not great.

Pros

Great colleagues across teams and geographies.

Cons

The company was once a mission-driven environment with strong collaboration and stability, a people first company, but the shift to a profit model emphasizing financial targets has fundamentally altered priorities. Senior leadership struggles to unpack executive vision into clear, actionable direction, often treating their functions as personal experiments rather than aligned team efforts. This has fostered selective attention toward a few individuals while hard-working engineers and other contributors are frequently overlooked in performance evaluations and opportunities-fueling repeated restructurings, team instability, dissolutions, distrust, mismatched and irrelevant performance review processes, neglected areas, and persistent daily frustration with no near-term resolution visible.
