Pros

The salary is the only relevant pro.

Cons

Everything else.

Culture was toxic.

No one would know or tell what you were supposed to be doing.

Software culture is a bit cannibalistic; it is kill or be killed.

When I quit and talked to HR, I found that I wasn't the only one with problems like that, which means they weren't doing anything to fix it.

I had panic attacks for months.

Advice to Management

Less bureaucracy, less talking about stocks and money. Focus on the culture and avoiding people from being stomped by a machine.
