Pros
  • Lot of existing tools to quickly build a product.
  • Groups are generally fairly autonomous; you can have a say in product direction.
  • Perks aren't bad.
  • Plenty of smart people haven't left, so you can still learn quite a bit.
Cons
  • Lots of layoffs (at the time)
  • Misallocation of resources; some groups have more people than they need, others don't have enough.
Advice to Management

Free food was a great idea. It was a huge morale booster.
