Most if not all decision is backed by data. - Very supportive tooling and process, help to make it easier to do meticulous managerial tasks (promotion & performance reviews). - Great opportunities to make impacts at all levels.

Cons

- Hiring freeze is tough for everyone. Layoff rounds make it worse. - Benefits and perks were subpar compared to other giant tech. - Some organizations were messier than others.
