Pros

Every single person I met was fun to talk to and a productive worker.

Cons

Management didn't notice a confused task title, a "short task" was actually months of fixing older code. They didn't notice but did end my contract. I will be more verbal about it if this ever happens again.

Pros

Good work, lots of AI experiments, AI innovation, latest tech stack, Co-workers are very co-operative and helpful. Most AI tools are still unlimited.

Cons

Some teams are over-working due to smaller teams as a result of recent layoffs. Office perks (like catered food, snacks) are dwindling every quarter even though company wants every employee to be 3 days a week in office. Company wants 80 percent code to be generated by AI but no clear guideline how to achieve that.
