Pros

The technology they are building is critical to the long-term success of AI systems development. It *really* is needed. I really do wish this company success as they have some fantastic, albeit clunky, technology. They are focusing on making the software less clunky, which is great, and while I'm critical of the quality of the software, I also acknowledge that how the software is deployed and used in companies (old school Enterprise software on-site/on-premise install on customer hardware/software stack). Here's what's great about Domino: EVERY SINGLE AI VENDOR NEEDS THEIR TECHNOLOGY. Last time I checked #ai and #genai and #llms (plus #ml machine learning) are the "hottest" thing in Silicon Valley. So why hasn't Domino Data Lab been able to capitalize on this? That's the question of the day. Not sure who the board of advisors is comprised of these days, but honestly, they are failing the company. (IMHO)

Cons

CEO that is too deep into the weeds and is missing the bigger picture of what needs to be done to get the company on a long-term success path. They do too many "reduction-in-force" with a 25-30% cut of employees [Yes, they fired 25-30% of their employees in Nov 2022.], followed by smaller headcount reductions ("firings") in 2023 and 2024.
