Pros
  • Rewarding to work at a company with a real mission that matters.
  • Get to work on projects that have a huge impact at a global scale.
  • Engineering leadership is very technical.
  • Great work/life balance.
Cons

• Have to be able to thrive on change, which can be exhausting. • Remote working isn't for everyone, and the plans for in-person meetings are vague. • Some of the in-office perks have yet to be replaced. • Tends to prefer to hire senior leadership externally instead of promoting from within.

Advice to Management

Focus on retaining employees by growing them into more senior roles to keep the culture alive.
