Pros

Overall compensation and perks are good. Some projects are interesting, and there are plenty of challenges. Yahoo tries to provide a good environment for employees.

Cons

The lack of long-term strategy.

Often, I feel that what I am working on does not matter, or that the architects/leads did not think things through, or plainly did trial and error.

Some of the technologies are old and crippling innovation and flexibility.

Work environment is noisy.

Advice to Management

There are too many layers in management. The reviews do not seem to be fair or objective since goals are constantly changing, therefore the rating is subjective.
