Pros

Pay, benefits, DTO, stocks (although they're not worth much anymore).

Cons

StreetEasy Engineering's upper management and leadership is staggeringly inept and unethical. They have cultivated a toxic and hostile culture, exactly at odds with their supposed corporate principles. Dissent is not tolerated, underlings are blamed for their boss's failures, and loyalty is rewarded over merit.

Advice to Management

Many people tried to warn you about what was going on with StreetEasy engineering. You ignored them. Then an engineer blew the whistle, and the bad actor fired them. You snuffed out a good engineering culture, squandered enormous resources, and lost the people most likely to get you out of this mess. My advice? Follow your principles.
