Pros

Mostly interesting engineering work Good work-life balance and managers who understand schedules Decent benefits package (especially 401K)

Cons

Little opportunity for remote work Compensation is not competitive compared to engineering roles elsewhere Easy to stagnate if your manager is not advocating for you or setting proper expectations Promotion decisions are not transparent Internal transfers are difficult and uncommon Company growth has created excessive bureaucracy Individual responsibility is becoming less clear as the company rapidly grows
