Cons

Job security is a real concern — the company has conducted layoffs for four consecutive years, creating a constant undercurrent of anxiety regardless of individual performance.

Leadership churn has been near-constant, making it hard to build trust in a consistent long-term vision or strategy.

Culture has shifted significantly since the pre-pandemic days. With over half the team remote, most meetings now happen over Zoom rather than in person, which has eroded the collaborative, in-person energy the company used to be known for.

There's a growing sense among employees that leadership has lost touch with the culture, values, and hands-on approach that originally built the company's success.
