Pros

the Pay is OK, although the RSUs have gone down for many that have been hired in the past year. I have a neutral to positive outlook personally on the stock. there will be some short term challenges for the company coming up but nothing insurmountable.

Cons

operationaly speaking, it's chaotic and sometimes down right absurd. there are organizational divisions that simply do not make sense. it causes execution problems and software/product quality issues. I have never worked for a company (and I have worked for other large companies) where most of the people in meetings have no idea what is going on. i believe it has been caused by years of nepotistic hiring bringing in people that are not qualified. I think finally there are a lot of execs that need to go. Especially in the Omni org.

Pros

Great people, smart people. With new CEO, maybe things will get back

Cons

Been a horrible last 3 years. Non-stop re-offs, new leadership that cut everyone and brought in new people who don’t know anything. No clear priorities, no leadership.
