Pros

Global workplace with some diverse talent (even if not internal)

Cons

Bureaucracy, 6 rounds of interviews. Not kidding. Thats more than any FAANG company would dare conduct. Zero transparency on upcoming interviews, ghosting after interviews etc.

Pros

Hats of to the people. They are nice and welcoming. Pay is good.

Cons

Recently, there have been a lot of layoffs, and unfortunately, I was one of the affected individuals. It would have been easier to accept if there were specific reasons such as poor performance, but that wasn't the case. They simply mentioned that it was due to changes happening within the company.
