Are the glory days gone?
Getting in before IPO meant a big cash-out if you sold at a good price. Anyone below exec level is a pleasure to work with. No crunch and generally decent WLB.
Stock crashed from $200 to $30 and is very slow to recover. Surprise layoffs. 3 days a week RTO policy (used to be 100% remote after COVID). Executive leadership likes to surprise people with compensation, especially bonuses, merit, and stock, etc. These are extremely random.
People want their products to be successful. If a product isn't making a profit, don't fire the team building the product. Ask why the product isn't working, pivot the team, do anything to figure out what went wrong. Laying off people just hurts the entire company. Do better lean product engineering and pivot faster to business opportunities.
