Vantaggi
Some of the best, most passionate people I've ever had the pleasure of working with. The majority of ICs and mid/senior management truly understand the work and aren't afraid to dig in. Above average comp and benefits.
Svantaggi
Direction often feels unclear. Teams are occasionally assigned 10,000-foot-view OKRs without clearly defined success metrics, and are expected to scope and build solutions that are sometimes completed on the engineering side, only for the underlying problem to be deprioritized before the work reaches customers. "Hackathon" projects are at times pushed into production quickly, introducing friction and contributing to technical debt. The organization is leaning heavily into speed and AI adoption as a way to move forward and using metrics like PR count and token spend to gauge performance. At the same time, the company has seen a number of highly impactful employees leave or be laid off, which can make continuity and execution more difficult.
