Pros

The projects are fun and the job keeps changing. I enjoy working with the people around me. The office is well designed to help boost productivity, you don't feel like you are trapped in a cube farm. The food is a little on the pricey side but it is tasty and well made. The compensation is above average and the company looks like it will keep on growing which is good for everyone.

Cons

The crazy and sometimes chaotic environment. A lot of email and meetings but there are people who will try to help you out and reduce the distractions.

Pros

Good work, lots of AI experiments, AI innovation, latest tech stack, Co-workers are very co-operative and helpful. Most AI tools are still unlimited.

Cons

Some teams are over-working due to smaller teams as a result of recent layoffs. Office perks (like catered food, snacks) are dwindling every quarter even though company wants every employee to be 3 days a week in office. Company wants 80 percent code to be generated by AI but no clear guideline how to achieve that.
