Pros
The pay is decent when you join but don't expect any improvements after that
Kontras
Data.ai acquisition was one of the biggest failures in terms of employee retainment. It was basically a cash grab/exit opp for the mgt in data.ai and that allowed ST to control the market. Market had no choice but to go for the inferior product of ST at the price of data.ai and that got to the heads of the ST Management. There was nothing really done to facilitate a smooth transition for employees. Half of the data.ai team were let go and then the rest eventually left or were let go. Product teams even after many months couldn't even get half the features available on data.ai. They pretty much call poor decision making as "Start up culture". The only way to get visibility is to be a 'yes man' to the CRO. CEO is hardly seen. If you are in their favorites, then its great and you can move to the top easily even if you don't have the experience, skill or qualifications.
