Pros

a lot of the people who work here are good people and talented employees

Cons

the middle management is a spin cycle of constantly rotating talentless individuals and the annual layoffs have really left this place struggling to function. jobs get pushed abroad with no consideration to time zone differences and a whole slew of people who don't know how to say they're already overstretched get assigned work from people who were let go and whole swaths of the business have just become inoperable. it takes months to get anything done and by the time you've made any inroads into solving a problem you have a new boss who knows they'll be reshuffled and don't bother trying to fix anything. everyone at the normal worker level is criminally underpaid for 2026.

Pros

- Mission - Work life balance - Pay - Modernization of the workplace

Cons

- Every year benefits are reduced with terrible and tone deaf justifications. - Added benefits tend only to benefit new employees. - Perception that the company does not value long term employees (suspension of defined benefit program) - Poor ESPP discount - Lack of transparency on how AEIP bonus is calculated - Workflow tools are still extremely cumbersome after years of promises to fix them - Lack of enforcement of hybrid work policy. Many people never come in and are never spoken to about it.
