      Pros

      First level managers are usually great. They seem to care about your goals. There is a lot of interesting work if you can network yourself within the company.

      Cons

      Draper has fully embraced the self-assessment. You have to make your own goals and assess yourself. You have to make your own case for being promoted - literally a powerpoint that gets sent to upper management where it will get ignored. Draper proudly pays consistently less than commercial competition (FAANG or anything one tier below). Engineers have been using Draper as a stepping stone to FAANG companies, resulting in a consistent drain of talent.
