      Pros

      After stabilizing the company in the market, Donahoe is pushing mid- and senior management to be more innovative and forward thinking. Innovation is starting to flourish, new talent is joining, that originally would have only wanted to go to Google, to innovate. Employees are in the mindset to "better the world".

      Cons

      Still a few residuals of "old thinking", but they are getting really rare.

      Pros

      Relaxing culture. family first. Stock performance is generally good for the recent two years and huge benefit if you're eligible for ESPP. Stable product with large customer base means you get opportunity to work on project with real impact.

      Cons

      1. Blind push for AI and leadership expect unrealistic efficiency improvement 2. Layoff every year in Feb (2024, 2025, 2026) and sometimes can feel the tension in team 3. Legacy tech stack with isolated and fragile infrastructure. Developer friction is a real pain. You get random infra down every once a while and internal support becomes even worse since they started offshoring to LCOL area in 2025. 4. Hiring freeze in San Jose... just expect more layoff coming up + frequent meetings at night / early morning across regions
