Pros

Have to start with the people are incredible - smart, supportive, and actually collaborative across teams. The product is strong, emphasize listening to customers and the developer experience. A fast-paced environment that encourages curiosity, problem-solving, and continuous learning. High ownership and responsibility, so your work has a direct and visible impact. High expectations push you to do your best work, and the bar for quality is set meaningfully high.

Cons

The fast-paced environment can feel intense at times and may not be a fit for those who prefer more structure or predictability. High expectations mean there’s little room for error, which can feel demanding but is motivating if you thrive under pressure. The pace of change is constant, so adaptability is a must.

Pros

There's a lot of freedom for both what to work on and how. Engineers are allowed (required) to organize their work how they see fit, with the guiding principle being to ship as fast as possible. The same goes for prioritization, if a project has a clear line to improving the customers' experience with the product, it gets done. There are no quarterly goals or roadmaps that get in the way of delivering real value.

Cons

The absence of quarterly/annual product goals can make it feel like priorities change on the whims of leadership, especially for engineers who prefer to execute on a crisply-defined long term vision.
