Pros

the benefits are great, 13 employer retirement contribution, great healthcare and paid time off

Cons

Very top heavy, CEO has no idea how to manage people and neither do the managers below him. Rampant spending on things that do not matter, no real interest in education

Pros

Great coworkers to be around, great benefits, work-life balance was perfect before the middle management layoffs. Collaborating with teams is constant and helpful for the design process.

Cons

They cut the research team, relying on designs to take on that plus end-to-end products, which leaves to heavy work loads and late nights. Deadlines are rather quicker than usual since the reorg.
