Pros

a lot of interesting products to work on. Some hard technical challenges are still there to solve. Supporting manager (as always: depending on your org.). Great work/life balance (again depending on your org but it was great in mine).

Cons

Square is growing rapidly and not all departments are adapting well: growing bureaucracy is the clearest sign of this. on-call can be noisy
