      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - You have a lot of resources and support to solve problems; I have rarely felt held back by red tape - Engineering partners are some of the best I've ever had as a PM. The engineers here tend to be good product thinkers. - Colleagues are so positive and supportive - Work is interesting and engaging - Leaders give you space to solve the problems - People are incredibly smart. I have learned a lot here in a short amount of time

      Cons

      - Problems can be a bit undefined; you must be ok with ambiguity - OKRs and various processes can be a bit hectic. No one seems to love them (though I've been through much much worse) - There is a lot of context switching due to the fast pace of the environment. - The company is weirdly buttoned up - and I'm not saying dress code, it's just that communication is very formal at times I don't know if any of these are "cons" objectively, just thing you'd want to be ready to handle.
