Pros

Great food. Great perks. Enterprise-grade software. You might get rich (unlikely).

Cons

Smart folks are leaving. Middling middle management that is cancerous. A culture for the sake of culture. Recruitment is broken. Senior management is afraid of losing engineers. Power battles. Clueless QA and elitist devs. Two product teams separated by University Ave. No feedback process.

Advice to Management

Go to the cloud. You have serious problems. You might discount this at beer syncs, but Palantir is in trouble.
