Pros

Good company to work for, good compensation and benefits package.

Competitive work environment.

Management maintains transparency and frequent communication.

Cons

The biggest problem in this organization is that there are far too many former Yahoo middle managers. They have brought in Yahoo politics and their former Yahoo employees (pre-CEO Marissa period) with them.

The reviews are highly subjective. The people who generally remain are not the ones who care about doing the job well; rather, they are the ones who are good at playing dirty political games, particularly within senior engineering and middle management levels.

Advice to Management

The CTO development organization's hiring practices and review process need to be overhauled.
