Pros

Extremely flexible work/life balance. Room for growth if you are willing to put in the effort. Middle management is a majority non-technical (this is a pro when you want more money)

Cons

Work/Life balance is too flexible, half the employees aren't actually working. (this is a pro if you want to coast) Middle management is a majority non-technical (this is a con if you expect to get recognized for good engineering work. you have to do the corporate dance and pretend you care to get a raise) "Be nice to everyone all the time no matter what" culture is causing more problems than it is solving. Managers are afraid to confront employees on poor work, etc. Not at all diverse, heavy Indian workforce. (this isn't a problem for me just an observation)
