Pros
- Beautiful new office (that you'll probably now have to go to at least Tue - Thur, even though there aren't enough seats or conference rooms) - My teammates are really awesome - Supportive, smart boss
Kontras
- Work/life balance is no more. Working daily 10-12+ hours to meet ridiculous C suite timelines, evening calls, expectation that we're always available on nights and weekends - It's an entirely new team of leaders (mostly from Netflix) and all their VP level reports are trying to prove themselves, so they pass ridiculous projects with absurd timelines on to the worker bees. The same requests are being assigned to multiple teams, lots of wasted time doing redundant work (and no one has time to even do what's critical) - Culture really quickly becoming super political and competitive - There aren't any more interesting projects - it's all BAU & jumping for last minute exec requests, leading to a lot of tech debt that's getting worse quickly - Big turnover on many technical teams
