Pros

Used to be a good place. Had lots of talented people and top-tier technology. Used to be able to work from home and used to have a lot of budget for eating out and buying things and traveling. It was a great place for innovation. Again “used to”. If you asked me a couple years ago when I joined, I would probably rate it 4 to 5 stars.

Cons

Five day RTO. People are getting really toxic because of the layoff here and there. No promotion, bad pay raise, bad RSU refresh.
