some good teams, some bad teams

Business Outlook

Pros

Benefits are excellent. A chance to work on and shape some of the most interesting, high-end technology on the planet. A chance to collaborate with some of the smartest engineers around. Some teams are truly exceptional, choose wisely.

Cons

Some toxic enclaves where micromanagement is rife from incompetent managers who blame problems on others rather than take responsibility. People team know about problem teams, but doing little to address it. Recent changes to appraisal process allows managers to surround themselves with 'yes men'. Psychological safety talked about, but absent in many places.
