Pros

Everyone is very talented. This applies to people in every single role, not just devs Interesting projects and technology Great culture, we are actively encouraged to experiment and innovate - management take this very seriously and drive a lot of this. Good pay and benefits Friendly colleagues

Cons

Security can be a pain. You get used to it somewhat and it is understandable but there are still a lot of times when you think "why can't I just do XYZ". Still a lot of tech debt on older projects Support rota can be stressful but this varies a lot between teams
