Pros

Since work here will be your hobby, you can try to go professional in your hobbies.

Cons

The company actually has no work. Most teams are just tearing down perfectly working services to recreate the same.

The teams mostly consist of people impersonating "Software Engineers" who have mastered their political skills. Make sure that you are good with praising everyone.

All teams consist of someone who is a myth, a legend, and is used to hearing that a lot, even during lunch. That's the only way to survive.

When I quit after only 4 months, my manager asked if I was laid off from the previous company and tried finding some reason other than what I mentioned as being no work.

With the introduction of pip culture, the middle managers are hiring to fire so that they can protect their loved ones. Please run away.

Advice to Management

Please fire your middle management. You have a great number of incompetent people that have been promoted.

Also, instead of just saying you want to use AI products now, tell engineers what you want with AI.

Please let your CEO go; he actually does not know what he is doing.
