Pros

I come to the office on flip flops and no one cares. I feel like my opinion is genuinely heard on discussions even with more senior engineers around. The people are generally very smart but also humble.

Cons

It takes longer to build and sse them in production due to the sheer scale / processes like code review, privacy review, UX reviews... Most of these processes have a reason to exist and are eased by great tooling
