Pros

Good work life balance. Good level of autonomy, engineers are allowed to make decisions about tech stack etc.

Cons

Decision making at middle management level can be baffling at times. Lots of reorgs happening, about once every year. Sometimes it is disruptive to productivity as people are shuffled around. Pay is not so ideal compared to other tech firms.
