    Avoid

    3.0

    Current Employee / Sales

    Pros: WLB is fine because most of the company is worried about getting process right instead of real shipping.

    Cons: Talent is alarmingly poor. No functional expertise. AI is a mess and competition is catching up. Its pretty toxic and the decison making is chaotic.

    Good potential but increasing toxicity

    4.0

    Current Employee / Engineer

    Pros: Great teammates, open culture, ok benefits, remote work, good engineering.
