Pros

Technical leadership is excellent, even at the executive level. Also, it's nice to work somewhere where the company understands the tradeoffs between fast & cheap.

Cons

Every performance review, every formal interaction with management, seems geared towards preparing for layoffs, which are indeed inevitable. Employees are treated like consumables.
