Buyer beware!

Pros

I enjoyed the work and the people sans the "social politics" at the company.

Cons

1. The layoff process is insulting, demeaning, and puerile. 2. Most employees seem to be overworked and underappreciated. 3. The promotions process seems less focused on results and more focused on who is assigned to the "right projects". 4. Management is more interested in "optics" than recognizing employees who go above and beyond the proverbial call to duty.

Pros

Remote job and good work life balance

Cons

Layoff process lacked transparency and prior communication. Employees were informed without sufficient notice period, which created uncertainty and stress. Better workforce planning and communication would help maintain trust.
