Pros

You can learn a lot if in the right team (search, ML). It is a Java shop and you get an opportunity to work with a lot of experienced engineers. The projects are not very intense with the timeline. Growth can be slower as there is a lot of hierarchy. Salary is average.

Cons

Lack of good documentation, growth opportunities can stagnate after a while.

Pros

If you're a sneaker head, or you have an appreciation for the culture, then you will be around like minded individuals and come in contact with many rare and amazing sneakers.

Cons

- Horrible management and HR. - They will try to force you to do work outside of your responsibilities. Then get upset when the priority work isn't done. - Hazardous and dangerous work environment. They're cheap. So when it's summer, it's blazing hot in the office, and when it's winter, there's no heat to stay warm. Massive floods, roof collapse, and power outages every other week. They try to fix the problems with bubble gum, rubber bands and used band-aids. - No room for advancement -
