      Pros

      Decent compensation. Org management is decent and values input from all engineers. Org projects usually have great customer benefit and rewarding to work on.

      Cons

      Losing trust in top management. Lots of projects from top that have very little benefit for the amount of effort involved. Ridiculous RTO policy being put into effect. S-Team seems focused on ruining culture of letting orgs choose their own direction and working style.

      Pros

      Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

      Cons

      You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
