10% of people always did 90% of the work. After the Amazon merger fell through, they laid off half the company. Subsequently, most of the 10% of hard workers all quit to get better jobs. The remaining employees are rudderless, and iRobot will soon be just another Chinese robot vacuum company like its competitors instead of a consumer robotics company looking to innovate.
Awesome staff, management, and work life balance. Love the people here.
Cons
Starting to focus too much on DEI and having a woke culture. It does not make everyone feel included. It causes division by focusing on skin color and gender rather than quality. I personally don't care what skin color or gender I am working with; I care about the quality of the person's character and skills they have. (I am a minority by the way.) This is ruining an otherwise great company, in my opinion.
