Pros

Good pay, and you probably won't find yourself working more than 40 hours per week as a software engineer, at least in Alexa. But don't underestimate how much of your energy that 40 hours per week can take

Cons

Profiteering, exploitative company. Borderline gaslighting of WLB practices and social good. Feels like a machine that's built to extract as much work as possible out of employees over the 40 hours in a week. If you can compartmentalize your work and just need a solid paycheck, fine. But I found myself drained of energy and wondering why at the end of every day
