'Was' great culture, everyone was generally very compassionate, and I really didn't encounter any dislikable people, though a bit cultie. "One Moose" is what they claim (more on that later). Boston office is nice.

Massive 18% layoffs reduction in work force. Not sure how there can be recent reviews of "no cons". I'd say cutting 1/5 of employees as a rather large con. Management is cheap. They won't give a cent for any engineering events, though sales goes on massive trips in Vegas costing the company hundreds of thousands of dollars. Classic claims of "no layoffs, have to double down. We're one moose" Next quarter, layoffs. What happened to One Moose? Seems more like 4/5 Moose. Code is in mainly maintenance mode. Lots of legacy code that basically cannot be updated without massive time investment.

How about instead of laying off people, you reduce executive staff pay instead to offset your mounting losses from failing to invest in your engineering org.
