Pros
There are good benefits and a handful of great teams with stellar individuals based out of Los Angeles.
Cons
Working here was the worst. The culture is so toxic, as there's hardly any trust between anyone and the combative nature of most teams often mean not coming to productive agreements on important projects. In most departments the leadership is lackluster and in need of major improvement, with some team leads being extremely inexperienced, uncommunicative and antagonistic even to their own team. In some cases, it's common for individuals to take on initiatives overnight without consulting the team, leading to conflicts that often see other members pinned as lazy and unmotivated. The daily expectation is to work long hours, usually with short notice regardless of holidays or time off, and to be always available with hundreds of requests to answer in the dead of night. Communication is extremely lacking between countries despite trying to mediate time zone differences, and grievances are hardly handled with any resolution. Role expectations are cloudy at best. Any individual can reach out to you with tasks that don't fit your job description but you're expected to do it anyway, and do it fast without any questions or guidance under the guise of urgency. Reaching out for any clarification often results in no real answers, and whenever issues occur it gets blamed as your attitude and work ethic being poor. Growth doesn't seem possible as you're expected to never question your role or team structure, unless you "prove" yourself to be deserving of promotion against impossible standards. Expressing a desire to grow in your role or team gets shut down and you don't have a say if you're moved from projects, teams or departments without notice. When people leave they are easily replaced without proper consultation from team members. Do not work here, the shininess of being in a new and big tech company gets overshadowed quickly by the sheer amount of disrespect, poor treatment and general toxicity that occurs every day. The company must improve and make major changes immediately or else more qualified and talented employees will continue to leave.
