      Pros

      Overall Zoom is still a great company to work for, all things considered. Being able to work remote is such a blessing, and they are still wildly profitable and have great cash-flow even post-COVID. All of my teammates and people I worked with were amazing and we helped shape Zoom from only video conferencing into a true platform workspace oriented platform.

      Cons

      Career growth once you get your role is limited. You really have to go above and beyond to get promoted, so if you want to work 10+ hour days then that path to move up is there. However, I will say their compensation is fair to begin with so this isn't a super big issue.

      Pros

      Native C++ client Bar is low for being a domain expert - knowledge the average Silicon Valley engineer should have is somehow in short supply there, so it's easier to stand out Pay was OK, while it lasted

      Cons

      Repeated rounds of layoffs, with departed colleagues' work being heaped on those remaining, left everyone miserable and stressed and just waiting for when our turn is next. My boss actually announced development was shifting to "startup mode", and when I asked if that means more upside or flexibility or equity or any of the other reasons you may choose a startup over a large established company, the answer was, "no, just more work" (!?!) Serious culture and power divide between overseas and California based development teams. Zero career growth investment in employees; no training or conferences except those offered by Zoom. Fired entire DEI team CEO attended Melania's movie premier
