Pros

- Some of the best developers I've ever worked with - The baseline quality level is far above other places I've worked. Everyone seems to be good at what they do - In-office perks are great - Fast paced work towards the company's goals - Plenty of room to move around teams if you find an interest in different areas of the org - High effort for diversity and inclusion, without being overbearing or detrimental - The people in charge are as skilled (if not moreso) than the people they manage

Cons

- Some bureacracy has crept in, so onboarding is tedious and infrastructure changes can take a long time.
