Pros
Hybrid work setup offers some flexibility. There are genuinely good teammates—many smart, kind people to collaborate with. Room to pitch new ideas, and leadership is generally open to testing them.
Cons
Despite being over a decade old, the company still positions itself as a “startup,” which creates unrealistic expectations. The recent RTO mandate feels more like pressure from investors or the board than a thoughtful business decision. It seems aimed at improving optics rather than employee experience. Leadership appointments often appear driven more by perceived revenue potential than by actual qualifications or experience. The company struggles and presents itself as a market leader, though evidence suggests otherwise. There is an overemphasis on rebranding as an “AI-first” company, which comes across more as a reaction to trends than a well-planned strategy. Leadership styles often clash with local team culture, creating friction and lowering morale. Not a place I would recommend—there are better opportunities for both career growth and stability. If you do consider joining, negotiate for cash compensation only and avoid equity
