It WAS a good company until taken over by nepotism

Pros

Fair pay, and still have good and intelligent employees in the company. Relatively transparent culture - put the majority of things on the table for discussion, but no concrete actions were taken.

Cons

Management could make bad moves that resulted in RIFs. And pls stop making promises the first day after RIF pls. Nepotism, and favoritism exist from up to down in some departments. People team is caring but those who made decisions are not - I've seen people be moved from team to team without asking their own interests and intensions. And some departments give no f to your work life balance. Random msg pops up very late in the night. People team told them to SCHEDULE MSG, but those guys never did
