Pros
Comp (salary, RSUs) is good, ESPP is solid, CEO is passionate and his vision is far-reaching, wide variety of technologies across the company to choose from.
Cons
Networking business unit is run incredibly top-down, stifling ideas, passion, constructive criticism, improvements and feedback from the boots on the ground. Difficult to manage up or extend influence in team/product direction. Metrics have become self-serving, existing only to provide upper management self-justification rather than actually tracking indicators of useful outcomes. BU-specific policies directly contradict CEO messaging regarding culture in company all-hands. NBU employees are required to work-from-office 3x/week and open reqs have been revoked for teams not meeting in-office attendance quota. PTO requests for >1 week require approval from 4 levels of NBU management. The "top priority" changes multiple times a week, making it difficult to effectively dedicate time/effort towards driving a task from start to finish.
