Pros

Interesting technology to work on and decent time off benefits. That's about it.

Cons

Leadership is not great. Top leadership is mishandling things in the name of efficiency, with notable conflicts of interest which HR doesn't do anything about.

Layoffs will continue, even for the core product organization, and more jobs will be moved to India.

Advice to Management

Listen to the staff. The morale has been getting worse every quarter. Actually do something and listen to the employees.

Also, the product roadmap is horrible. Pretty sure customers are going to jump ship veryyyy soon. LISTEN!
