Pros

Lots of paid off-time: three weeks of vacation, three weeks of sick leave, one week of personal day + holiday.

Cons

The company has a multi-layer corporate America structure: from team lead to mangers to directors to VPs to CEO. Lots of internal politics, everyone just watch their own back to keep the job. The role itself is really a QA engineer, not ML engineer. For 85% of the time, you work on infrastructure migration, pipeline maintenance, and code improvement. You are constantly being hassled to meet the deadlines. For the 15% of ML, you are told what model to use, what code to write. Very boring!
