Pros

WLB Remote work (which is slowly ending). Strong ICs

Cons

Poor leadership vision, strategy, and execution. Rebranding products that already exist as net new to chase a headline. Unclear career growth unless you are internally connected to “the right people”. Middle management that is there to boost their career / repackage IC ideas as their own with zero credit. RTO rollout was botched leading to senior sellers leaving. Lots of toxic positivity and virtue signaling
