Business Outlook

Pros

- A lot of growth opportunities - far more scope / high-leverage work to go around than there are engineers. - Given a lot of autonomy to define your role. Can mix engineering, PM, EM skillsets easily. - Can set boundaries pretty easily - there's always a lot going on but if you're very intentional about time management and what you take on, then you can focus on the important stuff - Company is growing exceptionally quickly. Pays well

Cons

- Not a lot of mentorship or structure provided for engineers early in their career - Not enough engineering managers - they exist in every org for a reason. Having someone to push back / prioritize requests from ops would make the product much simpler and life a lot easier.
