Pros

There is a strong engineering culture and decent WLB, although it has been getting rougher in recent months.

Cons

Management is in constant churn, and it is hard to buy into a vision that changes every few months.

The transparency culture is quickly evaporating, and there is a push to inflate metrics like PR throughput, which have no real impact on the product.
