      Pros

      Good salary and benefits, foo foo perks like free soda and snacks. Great ecofriendly building. Nice, ambitious people. Leadership values the brand. Wants to do right by their employees and needs to learn more about managing a company of this size.

      Cons

      The management is not good, very immature. Strategy changes daily or is non-existent. Very poor communication from top level, but they send you a lot of emails that have very little to do with what you do or how you do it. Throws money at projects and programs that are not well planned, and when they fail the company just moves on. Leadership values the brand but doesn't do too much to protect it.

      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
