Pros

Amazing engineers, problems, opportunities, and engineering teams.

Cons

Management is completely disconnected, with no accountability. You'll be lucky to get a 2% raise while they get > 10% raises. Most depressingly, they don't actually know how engineers do their jobs or how to make them productive. All of their decisions are geared to make it harder to be a successful engineer.

Advice to Management

Fire the CEO and most of the MCM. Bring in actual engineers to the upper levels. Stop rewarding hype and only give promos/credit when things have successfully executed in full production. Buzzwords and shiny things are not an indicator of competency.
