Pros
  1. You work with awesome people and a great, cooperative team environment.
  2. You work on several projects with various technologies and areas that help you get out of your comfort zone.
  3. Schedule flexibility.
  4. You work with so many technologies in your day-to-day that you learn a lot.
Cons
  1. Layoffs, layoffs, and more layoffs. Every year, they have at least one round of layoffs. This creates work instability, and people get stressed due to this yearly basis.

  2. Reorgs and team changes are frequent. You just joined and learned everything from your new team, and then you need to move to another team to start all over again.

  3. Senior management's first solution to everything is layoffs, and this affects work stability. I have seen so many great professionals laid off with no major reason from one day to another and without previous notice.

Advice to Management

Stop with the layoffs and reorgs on a yearly basis.
