Pros

Some really smart, caring people (though that might change, as people keep leaving). No big egos among engineers. Team managers seem to truly care about their reports, and creating space for people to be successful.

Cons

Running on the fumes of the past, lack of strategy or vision for the future. Fear of change and innovation. Growth opportunities are sparse. Hyper-focused on hiring, not so much on retention.
