Interesting design problems Great base level talent in some parts of the company

Cons

Management has become increasingly focused on internal politics Very long hours are expected Tops-down decision making has caused some of the top talent to leave - or be let go for disagreeing Lackluster company performance has made for inconsistent bonus payouts and frequent layoffs

Pros

Very exciting work, so much so I work 20hours a day. No distractions from silly/fun events. Food is meh so I can focus on work. Coffee is also very mid, not good, not bad but mid.

Cons

Not enough work, I only work 20 hour a day, I still have 4 hours to sleep. And on the weekends, we still have 3 hour leisure time. We still accept People who gets hired expecting to work only a measly 80 hour week.
