Not bad, used to be better

- I haven't seen any BS metrics to determine one's impact, like lines of written code or AI usage.
- There is good health insurance.
- It feels less cutthroat than what I've heard about Meta or Amazon.
- The workload and amount of stress have been gradually increasing for the past few years, with the pay stagnating and campus amenities deteriorating, such as more expensive food.

- Gradually, everyone is moved to an open space.
- Hire more people or decrease the number of projects.
- Catch up with the competition in terms of pay.
- Give people back their offices.
