Pros

Very focused at times and some cultural practices (e.g. clarity of thought expressed by writing). Very practical and good at incremental delivery

Cons

Jassy is uninspiring and dropped ball on AI so is trying to make it up by slashing costs and being actively hostile to employees (e.g. RTO5) and showing crappy slop AI outputs into inappropriate domains. Engineering excellence culture is mediocre overall
