Pros

Benefits are really great, healthcare doesn't get deducted from paychecks. Unlimited AI coding tools budget. Smart and helpful coworkers. Great work life balance and benefits for families. Lots of opportunity for internal movement to different areas.

Cons

Compensation isn't as high as other big tech companies. Stock price is down 25% YTD. Expected to own and debug systems you have never worked with during on call shifts. Slow promotion velocity, mostly depends on years in role in my experience.
