Pros

Good benefits, free food, no work off hours.

Cons

It’s a shame to see the decline in morale and employee quality over the last couple of years. The sales pit used to be full of energy and talent, now it’s full of misery and mediocrity. Quotas are a joke, products are poorly rolled out and the lack of communication between departments is glaring. There are far too many undeserving people in management and executive positions who have stifled growth and innovation due to their lack of vision and unwarranted egos. “Success” has become based on sheer luck, not talent and effort. Juice is not worth the squeeze for anyone who has aspirations of being fulfilled at work outside of a continually dwindling pay check.

Pros

I loved the talented people I worked with; I appreciated being appreciated; I loved helping employers hire; and I really thought this would be the company I retired from.

Cons

The company culture changed significantly after it became publicly traded; I didn't particularly care for how they handled layoffs; they didn't always act on the feedback they received; and they were slow to jump on the AI train.
