Pros

The company had outstanding benefits, gorgeous offices with all the extras, fantastic technology, and super coworkers. Unity truly walks the walk on diversity EXCEPT see my advice to management. Unity had many Employee Resource groups and seemed to truly care about issues for LGBTQ+ , about inclusion. And I saw some great promotions happen to folk from diverse groups.

Cons

Career growth can be stunted, arbitrary, and controlled by gatekeepers. Your chance of getting promoted is directly linked your luck in who happens to be your manager. It's very hard to get out of a bad manager situation and get into a new role or group with a new manager. Also they downgraded salaries if you went remote. The salary I am listing is from San Francisco.

Pros

-Flexible WFH environment -Decent work life balance and good benefits for the US based employees

Cons

-CEO and CFO insist on being based in New York, when the Company is based in SF. Earnings calls are at 5:30am because screw you West Coast. -CFO will stop at nothing until all the G&A, Accounting, Tax, and, Finance team members are located in Bangalore in an effort to cut costs. Offshoring is massive here and will only continue to expand. -Constant anxiety about layoffs. Sometimes they announce mass layoffs, but more often do it in smaller waves so as to not rattle the cage. -Top heavy org structure. There's probably as many or more SVP, VPs, Sr. Dir level folks as there are individual contributors/leads.
