Pros

- Nice Campus - Interesting topics - Nice cafe

Cons

Content feels mostly stale. No culture of performance Older wealthy CEO - vastly disconnected from both employees and overall market trends/realities. Most employees come in with hope and excitement and become disillusionned fast. Primarily due to office BS: strict no remote policy, creepy tracking/monitoring of employees, priorization of Wall Street and overall disconnect between mission and day-to-day at the office. Most of the staff seem depleted and show very little enthusiasm for their work/company.
