Pros

There are great perks and discounts with other companies. You have access to AI tools, though not with unlimited tokens. There is somewhat of a work-life balance, but it has gotten worse.

Cons
  • Stack ranking.
  • Layoffs every year.
  • Low visibility if you don't get along with the manager.
