Pros

I've never met anyone incompetent in a technical role (though I may just be lucky)

Cons

Under the previous leadership, it's like the company got bought out by a VC firm -- lots of nickel-and-diming on fringe benefits, etc., but the new management is at least giving the right signaling that they know of the cultural issues.

Pros

Very flexible work schedule. Company culture is the best I've been at

Cons

If you get stuck in management, they have you doing mundane tasks that I question will further your career as a software engineer.
