Pros
  • Industry standard pay, I guess.
Cons
  • Throwing company-wide events, then laying people off two months later.

  • Usually, I would say layoffs are understandable business decisions. It has happened to me before. Getting a new job is not hard as a software engineer. With that said, seeing how they spend their money on luxury and laying off one-third of the company? I would never recommend this place as a professional workplace. If you are looking for a one-to-two-year stay, this is the place.

  • Ten times performance, zero work-life balance.

  • Talks up how the company is doing, talks down bad profit margins.

Advice to Management

Stop trying push your "values" when one of them is "transparency".
