Pros

It used to be good, with a nice work-life balance and perks. It used to have some smart, nice people to work with.

Cons

Serious cuts are happening. Layoffs followed forced attrition through improvement goals, constructive feedback, and performance improvement plans that failed. Stacked ranking was started during midyear reviews. Perks are being removed at an alarming rate. Leadership has no idea what to do outside of focusing on AI, which they have no solid plan for.

Advice to Management

Leave, just leave. Let someone else take over. You tried, you failed, now get out.
