Pros
  • Good salary
  • Good work-life balance
  • Great and wise people in engineering
Cons
  • High management seems a bit lost with the company's direction.

  • High management used to show off more often with internal updates, but now it lacks visibility.

  • Unpaid on-call rotation with mandatory time-to-respond. You get paid only if called and waste more than a given time during the incident.

  • Shifting engineering to India and letting go of great minds with great contributions to the company, leaving void spaces without preparation.

Advice to Management
  • Look back at Jim Miller's times and bring back the pulsating environment.
