Pros

Great mission, lots of new things to learn, room for growth, ability to work directly with teams across the org, and really interesting technology. Salary is very competitive.

Cons

Manager turnover is so high that TPMs end up as the de facto management for teams. Multiple departments have 75% manager turnover in 1 year. Upper management over TPM and Product Management is dismissive and makes everyone in the org's job harder.
