Pros

Overall a great place to grow technically — learned a lot about large-scale distributed systems, production operations, and ownership. Had the chance to work with many smart and supportive coworkers across teams.

Cons

* On-call rotations can be hectic depending on the team * Internal processes and cross-team politics can sometimes be draining * Like many large companies, your experience heavily depends on your manager — a bad manager can really impact day-to-day work and overall morale
