Pros

- Can coast relatively easily - Work is predictable, at least

Cons

- Amazon wannabe bell-curve performance management - Lots of re-orgs and churn - No creativity or ownership of work - Have to really sell yourself to be noticed at all - cannot shine through your work - Constantly raising the standard, even if you are above the bar, it is not enough

Pros

Feels like I'm working at a startup at times. Very modern and agile approact to engineering

Cons

Sometimes deployments are late night meetings. Not often though
