Pros

It's a job that provides a paycheck.

Cons

Saying the new CEO is bad at her job is an understatement, with how she spoke (laughed at questions from employees, called employees selfish, said their concerns about the RTO mandate being increased and desire to WFH were nonsense, said layoffs weren't a bad thing) during the last meeting she outright despises the employees (unless they are yes men). Pay is below market rate. Benefits are average at best. Remote employees are prohibited from internal transfers now. More layoffs are incoming. Tons of outsourcing (will be more in the future as well with the new CEO). New CEO is looking to heavily "cut expenses". RTO mandate (that has a 99.99% chance of increasing to 5 days in office because of the new CEO). Outdated tech with tons of tech-debt. Constantly implementing (without testing or thinking about edge cases) new changes to the deployment pipelines that introduce more red tape and slows deployment time.

Pros

The pay is market average, and the benefits are quite good. I love my peers. The vast majority of them are kind and talented people. I truly enjoyed my first several years with the company. Well past the honeymoon period for a new employer. And at the time, I recommended this place to anyone I knew looking for a job.

Cons

Management is a mess from the bottom up. The culture of the company has drastically changed over the last several years because of frequent retirements, layoffs, and reorganizations. Employees I know from across describe the same experience: the company has gone from outstanding culture to one that feels openly hostile to its employees. Management decisions are built like cudgels and enforced through all stick and no carrot.
