I think you're confused. Alibaba is still posting YoY revenue growth of more than 30%. https://www.macrotrends.net/stocks/charts/BABA/alibaba/reven... Of course their stock price has been falling continuously over the past year, but that's down to the company losing favor with investors, who apparently believed that Alibaba was favored by the government and now they believe the opposite. Amusing.
If you're still interested in learning how people feel about working at Alibaba, you could read e.g. https://zhuanlan.zhihu.com/p/180359899 (from April this year, the most recent I could find).
