Pros

Challenging work in a difficult problem space.

Some smart, hardworking colleagues.

Competent leadership up to the level that affects my daily work.

Cons

I've worked very hard and have delivered solid results with real business impact. I've mostly gotten "meets expectations" ratings, lackluster raises, and little in extra RSUs. In other words, my pay is falling behind.

From my experience, this company does not value hard work and dedication. If you want to "rest and vest," it might be a good option.

It's also a mess with inconsistent RTO messaging, remote teams that can only hire at HQ, and generally declining efficiency due to across-the-board RTO requirements.
