That's the way it means to be
Pros
Open and direct culture. Nearly everything can be discussed openly, and people here tend not to hide bad news. I'm not saying every BU/ everybody here would be equally transparent but as long as I have seen, the people I'm dealing with are pretty reasonable. If you are in the core BU, I mean, GPU, you probably have enough exposure to interesting and state-of-the-art technology and engineering practice. This may not apply to other BUs which I've heard complains about not having enough fun there.
Cons
More and more "data driven" decisions were made. Data driven is conceptually the right way to do, but when people who don't know how to interpret the data start to take in charge, the decisions tend to only address short-term perspectives, instead supporting fussier, hard-to-quantify long term goals. Also the 401k match plan is like a joke.
