Business Outlook

Pros

Good office culture and flexibility with going in, decent WLB at times.

Cons

Two rounds of layoffs in two years because CEO wants to be more AI-empowered and more offshored employees. Pay also wasn’t the best.

Business Outlook

Pros

Golden handcuffs. You'll get all the monetary incentives to stay.

Cons

23 manager changes in 25+ years. Always a constant reset of values and goals. More value on H-1B. Promotes the worst people to leadership roles. AI is more important than humans. Movement within is impossible unless it's decided for you. Inclusion is fake as the ageism seeks to lay you off.
