Pros
After Fastly any other job will seem amazing.
Cons
Politics, gaslighting, bullying. This is a nasty company with nasty leadership. The problem isn't just the pressure to "perform" it's the arbitrary political games you have to play everywhere. Working at Fastly is like "pick an number between 1-10, pick wrong and you get a performance warning". Management play mind-games to trip you up and put you in a bad position. Teams are at war with each other, everyone has their own agenda. Stay away from Fastly, it's a nightmare.
