Pros

Not any pros anymore unfortunately

Cons

Lack of logical/solid product strategy. Leadership doesn’t understand the product and make the worse decisions. There is absolutely no room to advance career wise. Design leadership is a clique that you’re either on good terms with and if you’re not you have a target on your back.

Pros

WLB Remote work (which is slowly ending). Strong ICs

Cons

Poor leadership vision, strategy, and execution. Rebranding products that already exist as net new to chase a headline. Unclear career growth unless you are internally connected to “the right people”. Middle management that is there to boost their career / repackage IC ideas as their own with zero credit. RTO rollout was botched leading to senior sellers leaving. Lots of toxic positivity and virtue signaling
