Pros

Very welcoming people, nice office space for a startup. Free lunch was great, with moderately interesting work on the hardware side. Solid work-life balance. The founders seemed friendly enough when things were going well.

Cons

Got laid off with no notice, no time to transition, and after being reassured that the people come first. I don't really care about the company's fate, but I feel bad for the people I worked with who are now scrambling to pick up the pieces.

Advice to Management

I only directly interacted with management two levels up from me, and they were great. No complaints there.

To the management above that: I get it, layoffs happen. But the way it was handled was pretty cold.
