Pros

Great culture. Most people I worked with were smart, kind, and loved what they did.

Solid compensation and benefits.

For the most part, interesting and challenging work.

Constant effort to improve through yearly surveys and employee committees.

Cons
  • Massive layoffs every 2 years.
  • Sometimes, valuable team members are cut with no explanation.
  • At times, there is too much focus on consensus, and decisions can take a long time to be made.
Advice to Management

Overall, keep being awesome and respectful. More transparency would help, especially around the promotion process and layoffs.
