Pros

Great co-workers and big-bet on deep tech. Great technical challenges to work on.

Cons

Performance cycles are rewarding the wrong objectives and organization is a mess and needs a lot of restructuring before being efficient again. Especially manager growth is rewarding the wrong thing and ends up in a deep hierarchy over time.
