Pros

There are still some positive, committed, capable people in the system.

Cons

There has been a steady decline in the culture. Dirty power game is causing systematic elimination of valuable people in impactful roles. The worrisome fact is that this is being driven from the very top.

Pros

Good people, meaningful work, nice campus

Cons

Prefer to hire external than promote within, typically pay external hires more than more experienced internals, eventually leads to talented employees leaving.
