The rating system is unfair and causes constant instability.

Forcing a specific percentage of employees in a tower to be fired or laid off every year makes it really hard to have a consistent team of well-performing engineers and makes it so that senior engineers are constantly training new engineers instead of building a good product. It chips away team morale, and turnover is fairly high because of that.

Culture is hollow and hypocritical.

They advertise how inclusive they are, but every team I have been on has had fairly blatant sexism. They advertise how eco-friendly they are and how "liberal" they are, but invest in businesses and projects that directly go against those aims.

Work-Life Balance.

They like to tell employees that work-life balance is a high priority, but every team I have been on has worked 60-hour weeks fairly routinely, and the priorities that management sets make it near impossible to work normal hours and still hit all benchmarks.
