Pros

Pretty good work life balance

Cons

Work is boring and oftentimes pointless. Promotions are almost worthless and give very little increase in compensation.

Good pay, mostly remote. Able to learn a lot if you can find the time

super weird after all the lay offs. Dissonance from wanting to be creative but everyone is over worked and scared of getting laid off

Pros

Excellent pay and benefits, continuous opportunity to learn and grow

Whiplash from constantly shifting direction and priorities, no job security (15000+ layoffs in first six months of 2025), productivity/performance over people, no internal mobility
