Avantages
In 4+ years at the company, the people I've worked with are the best part of working here. I've met some of the kindest, most effective, and brilliant engineers in my career, and I get to learn from many of them every day
Inconvénients
- Frequent layoffs, often poorly-communicated and executed. Really hurts morale and brand. Engineers I interview ask me if there will be more layoffs coming and whether they should look elsewhere. - Poor morale. Most teams I am working with are understaffed, projects were not cut after layoffs, people are burned out. - Lack of impactful and decisive company strategy, aside from just AI hype train stuff. - Lack of effective product leadership, particularly of 0->1 projects. We build lots of shiny, kinda klunky features, ship them without enough thought or engineering support, they don't gain traction (not surprising), and often we don't take the opportunity to think about what we could have done better before shipping the next novelty.
