Pros

- work/life balance is good - Unlimited PTO policy

Cons

- If you're a senior developer, prepare to be under challenged - They spend way too much time talking about doing things instead of doing - Too much red tape and bureaucracy, takes for over to roll things out to production - Many "Teach Lead" titles cosplaying as technical, but they're actually light and inexperienced. Because of them things take 10 times more to accomplish then. I swear they use ppl like as a crutch to cover up their incompetence in front of their superiors. - P+ relies too much on ppl hire from abroad and are here on the US on H1B's; those ppl have a lot of gaps in their education and formation, making the place more disorganized and stressful than it should be - The non-tech teams are over bloated and they also lack experience. An analogy is having too many so called "chefs" in a kitchen, therefore things flow erratically with lots of miscommunication and delay - Senior IT leadership is no more competent, they lack vision of expertise on how an IT shop should be run. Also the structure is too hierarchical.

Pros

The work life balance is awesome and small teams mean a large impact.

Cons

Constant doom and gloom narrative from up top. Not many vertical opportunities.
