Pros

The company is very stable and progressing as such. It has a great mission and values, depending on the team. The culture is great and inclusive.

Cons
  • Frequent change in directory level, personal (those who had been with the company since startup).

I don't know if this is good or bad.

  • Principal engineers are leaving as well. Definitely not good.

  • Compensation is lower compared to Bay Area standards.

  • Some teams, at least one of the teams I work with, promotions are given based on seniority regardless of how you work. This is not a good incentive for achievers and becomes like a tribe where you go along with the tide. For some, this may be an advantage as they just ride along and work a cushy job.

Advice to Management

Compensate based on contribution, not based on seniority.
