Pros

Cons
Clique-y product and management team, general disregard for engineers. Difficult to change position once you've started. Limited opportunities for promotion, senior eng's/team leads are often paid the same as general engineers, at least for the first few years in their role. Low pay ceiling - expect 70k until (well after) promotion, which may take 3+ years. PMs usually promoted within 6 months or so. Dwindling number of engineers in Sydney, but growing overseas where employment is cheaper. General priority of managers seems to be growth hacking and producing product videos. Limited opportunity to create solid code and write tests - PMs usually instruct engineers to cut corners if it will speed up the release of the product.
