Pros

- Remote work - Decent pay for engineers - $200 monthly stipend - Friendly colleagues

Cons

This company is completely different from when I started working for them. What used to be a very trusting and empowering environment has become entirely eroded in the last year and a half. I was hired into a culture where if you see something that can be fixed or improved then just do it. That's all gone. Everyone is now siloed, every task effectively requires someone's permission, and work is micromanaged. Leadership is becoming obsessed with measuring productivity through vanity metrics that end up creating perverse incentives that even middle management is taking advantage of. There have been multiple reorgs in this time, and many of the top performers who made this team what it was have left. This has lead to churn, mixed messages, and a feeling like you don't even know the company you're working for anymore. Optro no longer seems to have any sort of internal identity. Leadership has recently been shown to be aloof as they repeat PR terms and act dismissive towards employees who question them. Lastly, good luck advancing your career unless you are someone's favorite or if you're fine working with tech that's almost entirely irrelevant everywhere else.
