Pros

Good boss and bosses boss. Very flexible and supportive. Low stress most of the time. Enjoy my team members. I work in a number of different technologies: XSLT, Java and JavaScript, ExtendScript and AWS.

Cons

Salary may be a bit low. Dev Ops team is centered in India. However, some members are in the same time zone. The main members that I interact with, however, are in India.

Pros

When a project goes according to plan you can work with some great people and make decent money.

Cons

Bad behavior is tolerated when you have a weak team member. They are allowed to remain on payroll, even if they do not effectively contribute. The burden is often placed on the team members willing to pick up the slack. Promotions are not given to the most qualified. They are randomly assigned. There are some horrible scoring directors as a result.
