Pros
  • They pay on time.
  • Benefits (were better, unsure about what they'll scrap next).
  • Access to therapy (which you will end up needing).
Cons

E Staff: a revolving door

Leadership style: "you are following me? I was following you"

General vibe: Jeb Bush's "please clap"

IMO, their employee value proposition is: "Working here is very uncomfortable (politics, mixed signals, off/long hours/weekends), but at least you may get laid off."

First time I ever saw a Director rage-quit on LinkedIn after 10 years of service, citing culture decline.
