Pros

Working from home. Training team cares about gurus Fellow gurus work hard Building your own business Helping merchants succeed.

Cons

I switched squad leads, and it went all down hill from there. I was fired within 2 months. Nothing was done to aid the situation. They lied to EI stating that they did correct me on the issue before they let me go but they never corrected me or warned me. One day I was a Guru next day I was fired. I got a great review the day before from my squad lead. It was so unexpected. They discovered a performance issue and let me go the exact same day and it was something they could have corrected. This is why I call them prentious. I was reliable and once a top performer. On the outside they pretent they are all amazing this and that, but behind closed doors they judge you without you knowing.

Pros

Remote first culture. If you want freedom of location and a company to truly mean and support it - this is the place.

Cons

Constant change. Nothing to hold on to in this role, compensation, KPI's, tools all change every quarter.

Pros

- Kind and talented co-workers - Generous AI token spend - Fairly transparent company (has been getting less transparent over the years) - Lots of opportunity for impact

Cons

- Product management discipline is quite lacking since the new CTO joined - Microsoft culture is adding more chaos and stress, and causing projects to actually go slower - Managers are afraid to tell the truth to Mikhail about the loopholes in engineering; they just want to look good, so they rush their teams to ship crap - Top engineering leaders are moving out of management roles or leaving the company - Tobi used to be far more involved in ensuring a high engineering bar, but seems to have handed over the reins to the new Microsoft regime
