Pros

Guys, this is the real thing. You can be happy and love your job, and employers can treat you like you deserve to be treated. I get to be around passionate, creative, and amazing people every day and do work that I love. Two words: dream job.

Cons

I've yet to find a single one. Maybe that there are way too many delicious snacks around at all times.

Pros

Work life balance Smart coworkers On-sites are fun Interesting work sometimes

Cons

Management, particularly the ET. Performance reviews and promotion are political to a pretty astonishing degree. The tech bro environment. The culture has been noticeably deteriorating since the RIF at the end of 2023, and the focus seems to be on growth and AI more than keeping commerce human in an extremely difficult time.
