Great learning opportunities

Pros

Really good learning to grow oneself. I grew from being a developer who needed support to independently delivering features and products for customers. Learnt the right way to project technical and non-technical skills for the betterment of customers. Compensation is slightly lower toindustry standards in Bay Area.

Cons

Politics and re-orgs hamper your growth. Try to stay away from it if possible.

Pros

Opportunity to move around between teams easily and take on new projects. In general, some great people to work with.

Cons

Performance management is brutal to a team that's been together for 2yrs or more. Limited benefits beside reasonable pay. Limited promotion opportunity above manager or senior engineer.
