Pros

Little red-tape, teams are focused on getting stuff done. Lots of room to grow quickly, ownership is highly valued, engineers are capable and determined.

Cons

Engineers randomly get assigned focus/pip to meet org's goals, and it doesn't seem to be related to performance. ML development is behind other FAANG companies.

Pros

Working with a good team will not only motivate you but will give you a sense of camaraderie and fulfillment.

Cons

It's saddening to know that someone's head is always on the line as managers are forced to throw someone under the bus.
