Pros

Total compensation and benefits. 10% of employees are amazing, good engineering talent.

  • NIH syndrome, very poor software solutions
  • Full gas in neutral on over-communication
  • Duplicity of solutions / fragmentation
  • Managers do almost nothing
  • Some LeetCode-only engineers bring down the company
  • Too much emphasis on interpersonal skills at the expense of bottom-line business goals
  • Dooming the future with "boil the ocean" Metaverse initiatives
