Pros

Good pay Learning resources (udemy)

Cons

It is hard to deploy things to prod, you'll have to get approvals from many people. Lack of support from management and people are not always willing to help, they just point you to the documentation. Lack of definition for the tickets

Pros

There are still some parts of the culture that haven't been stripped by the C-suite yet. Great tech.

Cons

"We need our engineers to be closer to our drivers, so we're going to stop hiring in the only country our drivers live in and farm out the work to Eastern Europe."
