Pros

Compensation is up to industry, benefits are high, best or close to best name in the industry thus helps to grow career

Cons

US centric ( any other office is surrogate of US) this applies in terms of decision making, risk taking, growth in the company, working hours, etc. US best office, Europe second best ( doesn't do much but good hours) Asia worst: long hours, does the most, least compensated

Pros

The company culture is good.

Cons

Senior leadership often makes technical decisions without sufficient technical context, which can lead to unrealistic timelines and inefficient execution. There is a tendency for strategy and corporate development to generate projects that feel more vision-driven than problem-driven, resulting in initiatives that lack clear ownership or measurable outcomes. The company frequently promises ambitious roadmaps, but internal execution struggles to keep pace. This can create churn, wasted engineering effort, and shifting priorities. There’s also a strong bias toward acquiring solutions rather than building internally, even when in-house development might be more sustainable long term. Compensation is meh but not always aligned with the level of ownership and output expected.
