Pros

High quality teams and products. The best engineers and teams I have ever had the pleasure of working with, hands down. Great people to work with on the daily.

Cons

Management across most departments is tone deaf to compensating and retaining talent. You are often given 3-5 hats to wear. Work life balance and raises (1-3%) are subpar. You really have to be strong and consistent in enforcing your boundaries with work/life balance and even then it can be frowned upon if you do not put in a certain amount of overtime. You were often asked to work late or on weekends for weeks to months at a time.
