Pros

Free food. Free booze. Looks good on the resume for recruiters who don't know the truth.

Cons

Temporary product leadership was super toxic. Platform going down the drain. Cloud going down the drain. Security product going down the drain. SVPs infighting/politicizing and trying to grab as many RSUs as they can.

Advice to Management

Sell since you can't seem to do anything. How many more core people will you lose before you figure out that engineering is not your enemy? We are the ones that build the company, and now you are poo-pooing us.
