Pros

- Decent compensation (until you cliff) - Good health insurance and 401k match - Good additional benefits (i.e. $2000 per year PerkUP money that can be spent on childcare or cleaning among other things) - 2 weeks of company-wide shutdown per year, plus monthly inDays - Smart and competent engineers in the teams - No significant push for RTO for engineers as of now

Cons

- very limited salary growth past year, no stock refreshers past year, layoffs just happened -> probably no salary growth/refreshers for some time going forward (be glad you were not laid off (c)) - severely stifled career growth (promotions under increased scrutiny, even if you get promoted - the package will be less generous, management promotions highly unlikely) - outdated and ineffective technical stack - lots of in-house solutions (which are miles behind industry-standard ones) - so your experience here becomes not easily transferable - no clear vision for improving the situation (still building new in-house solutions with decreased team sizes) - As a result of the vision issues - lots of "high-priority" projects initiated by the leadership with questionable goals (not solving the actual problem, or solving it in a most rigid and inconvenient way possible with outdated concepts or tools) - significant amount of bureaucracy, hence - the speed of change is slow, hence mentioned projects arrive (if they even arrive) too late and are outdated on arrival - unlimited PTO (so they do not have to pay you for the days of PTO remaining when you leave. Also - statistically people tend to go to PTO less with unlimited PTO) - Recent wind down of benefits (not significant yet, but the tendency is there and aligns with other cost-cutting measures) TLDR - feels like it's past its prime and now the trajectory is only down, it remains to be seen if the trend can be changed
