Pros: did not enjoy working here

Cons: An unethical company with bad practices.

Pros: There are a lot of hard problems that we try to solve. But that is becoming less the case over time.

Cons: - Toxic company. New hires do most of the heavy lifting. - This is a consulting company. You are not working for a software company. - No product roadmap. No product strategy. - Extremely political. If you fight the big guys, you are out. - The loudest voice wins. Always. (contrary to Palantir claims). - Average age: 25, with a standard deviation of 2 years. 90+% of employees are under 32. In short, kids are leading the boat. - Cost cutting is happening now that the company is trying to IPO. No housing subsidy, less interesting pay, worse software quality, and highly questionable cost-cutting techniques/strategies. Corp cards for everyone (extravaganza), but cost cuts to product development. - People compete to see "who will stay longest in the office" as a cool thing. That’s because most employees, while extremely talented, have little to no social life outside of work. If you do, you’re losing that game. - Arrogance. Plenty of it. Masked in fake modesty.

Pros: Very smart engineers. Learned a lot.

Cons: Not really any major downsides, unless you don't like the area.
