Pros

Great people to work with and work is extremely rewarding. If you're lucky, you won't have any competition for promotions on your team and get fast tracked for being the only one doing work.

Cons

Stacked Rankings pits everyone against each other. Even if you hit all of the benchmarks for promotion, you may not get it because so does everyone else on your team. Not to mention constant reorganizations often means your great relationship with leadership means nothing if they're reassigned every 6 months and you're left having to convince a new manager you've done great work the past year.

Pros

-TDP program is great for straight out of college hires -Use modern tech stack with modern processes -Generally pretty nice people and environment in the office but this can vary based on where you end up, some teams and leaders are toxic or just plain bad at leadership

Cons

-Culture has shifted to start imitating Amazon more and more in all the bad way, less benefits, less money spent on employees, tighter deadlines, regular layoff cycles -If you aren't a manager or a recent grad, avoid this place. TDPs get preferential treatment and will likely get paid more than you even if you are a more senior position. -Started as remote optional, than 50% of the days in office, now 3 days in the office minimum, wouldn't be surprised if it becomes 5 days mandatory soon. - If you are not self motivated, this environment is not for you. They don't hold your hand at all, and this will prevent you from promotions. - Promotions are rare even for good performers
