Pros

The people are genuinely collaborative and open, which makes cross‑team work smooth and enjoyable. Senior leadership is approachable and never uses intimidation as a management style. My direct management chain is incredibly supportive and invested in my growth. I get to work directly with customers on real‑world applications, which keeps the work meaningful and grounded. There’s a high degree of autonomy in deciding what to build next, which makes the role feel empowering.

Cons

Senior management doesn’t provide much long‑term strategic direction, so most strategy ends up being driven from the development side.
