Pros

There is a relaxed dress code, beer, and ping pong. And all of those thngs seemed great during my initial interview. But these things are standard these days at technical companies, After my first 3 months i was no longer wowed.

Cons

Pay raises are minimmal at best and provide lack of future earning ability. Employees seem to get pigeon holed into tasks with little to no opportunity to grow out of them or pursue new interests. This also makes advancement extremely difficult, most emplyees have to leave to grow in their careers. Lack any sort of mission or vision, feels like we want to be tripadvisor but are far from it.

Pros

The pace and work/ life balance are very manageable and they are still pro remote work which is a huge benefit as a lot of companies push return to office. The benefits and salaries are great compared to the industry standards.

Cons

Lots of turmoil, changeover, layoffs and chaos caused by a recent re-org. ELT does not have vision or innovation outside of “AI” and it’s hard to feel confident about the long term success of the company. Lots of white men who lack creativity.
