Pros

Team was great and people genuinely care about the projects they are working on. Super passionate.

Cons

Leadership doesn’t care about anyone. Said there wouldn’t be layoffs and the month after Microsoft took over, laid off 2500 people and they just keep happening

Pros

Good work-life balance (but is very dependent on team and role)

Cons

Suffers from the same issues as any big corporates. Corporate structure is inherently dangerous to creativity.
