Pros

Generally they don't overwork you, and you get plenty of space to finish your work depending on what team you're on.

Cons

There's not a great deal of sophistication or quality to the software they write, with virtually no telemetry or observability. Unit tests were uncommon, there wasn't really an attempt at CI/CD, and no real push to raise the bar from the software engineering side. Lower level management didn't have the skills to recognize these issues either.

Pros

The work is interesting. Some decent travel is available if desired. If you work hard and set yourself apart from others you can earn a promotion.

Cons

It’s all about who you know. All responsibilities fall on Engineering. Engineering does much more than “engineer” and spend too much time on stuff that admin staff “should be able” to do. When something needs to change the usual solution is to have Engineers be responsible for it because many non-engineers can’t handle mediocre tasks.
