Pros

Generally competent people who are well qualified and enthusiastic. Bonuses and reviews occur every quarter. You feel like you're making a difference. They have been promoting from within the ranks. The stock price is still climbing.

Cons

This is a "yes" company - you must agree when asked for something, and if you say "no", you'd better have an air-tight reason. There is unrelenting work and unrelenting change. I went through three org changes and two management changes within 9 months. The new CMO is introducing even more change and pressure to perform(he previously worked at Amazon). You sometimes feel like a robot just getting stuff done in your assigned lane. Managers have the constant pressure to make sure their team is perceived as "high-performing". There is almost no room(or time) for creativity.

Pros

Free snacks Leadership opportunities Stable work given current ai market You can get challenging engaging work but it comes at the cost of putting in extra hours Smart and helpful people work here

Cons

Work can a bit boring if not on something cutting edge Dev experience is pretty bad, moving xml files around that contain the actual code, proprietary low/no code platform to build products Full of Indians, diversity is a joke in engineering. It feels like a cost cutting measure more than anything else tbh Very much a checkbox mentality when building products instead of long term thinking with quality and usability Doubts about upper leaderships navigation during rise of ai Pay is nothing near what it should be, especially after stock dropped almost 40% yoy Certain internal processes are difficult for no other reason than we made them like that, lots of reaching out to people for rqts, signoffs, adjustments etc
