Vantaggi
It's indoor work with no heavy lifting, do you really want to be a ploughman like your father?
Svantaggi
"Micromanagement" is an understatement for the "leadership" team. They lack the capacity to trust their managers; every single hiring decision is subjected to random, uninformed whims of [redacted]; in fact, their entire hiring process seems to be designed to exclude experienced engineers with multiple options, which is very frustrating when you are trying to grow your team with anyone but new grads (and even they end up getting snatched up elsewhere, if they have a modicum of skill!) Extremely opaque expectations from management, product direction is chosen, again, at the apparent whims of the executive team, with little regard to product market fit, or data-driven strategy. Employees randomly moved onto new projects with no warning and insufficient ramp-up and knowledge transfer. A culture of fear dominates. Absolutely no regard is given to employee welfare by the executive team; for example, just a week before an entire team was laid off, that team was granted permission to extend an offer to a potential new hire (who ended up declining, thank goodness). Had he accepted, he would have quit his current job, gotten hired, and immediately laid off without severance. What kind of psychopath would do that to someone???
