some of the team is very talented and well-meaning
Cons
Culture and leadership! In absolutely no circumstance should a team member that has been successful for 6 years+ be completely blindsided by a layoff. The company has been through many changes of leadership and though culture was never a strength it has continued on an escalating downward spiral recently. Those that should be shepherding the culture don't make it a priority. As an example, 9 out of 10 of my 1:1's with my direct supervisor were canceled last minute - unacceptable in a fully remote organization.
The company is definitely up for sale and looking to maximize in the short term.
Do not join this trainwreck!
