Pros

Technology is treated as a first-class concern now.

Management has made great strides in digital transformation.

Great work-life integration.

  • 5 days off in a year just to learn whatever you want
  • 5 months of paternity leave
Cons

Still very hierarchical in decision-making, especially in engineering.

Doesn't stay true to the stated values in appraisals. Appraisals are still very subjective.

Advice to Management

Keep doing the same things around digital transformation.

Make the organization less hierarchical.

Improve the appraisal process.
