Pros

Great co-workers and a big bet on deep tech. Great technical challenges to work on.

Cons

Performance cycles are rewarding the wrong objectives, and the organization is a mess. It needs a lot of restructuring before being efficient again. Manager growth, in particular, is rewarding the wrong thing and ends up in a deep hierarchy over time.

Advice to Management

Remove a lot of the mid-level (director) leadership and slim down the reporting chain. Remove PSC and find another way to reward and promote your ICs.
