Pros

Started with 1yoe so had to go through “FSD” training. It’s like going back to uni for 2 months and getting paid. Met a bunch of people who were dope, and now work across the company. Then did a reverse interview to find a team. My team is all python and react js.

Cons

Claims to be diverse but is distinctly missing diversity in upper management. Which seems even worse when they omit their own stats from aticles they’ve published on lack of diversity in big tech.
