Pros: There is a lot of fun working there since we do cool stuff and take things to new levels.

Cons: Hard to make improvement here.

Pros: 1. Working with smart people 2. Pay is decent

Cons: 1. Hybrid (3 times a week in the office). 2. Toxic culture (coworkers/managers). 3. Horrible on-call workload. 4. Easy burnout and stress. It will affect your mental health. 5. Overworked but barely any salary increase each year and lack of benefits. 6. Senior engineers and above all seem miserable. They make your job hard for no reason, unwilling to help out and ignoring questions and messages because they are “busy.” But they always have so much to say about what someone less experienced does and loves to add more work to everyone’s plate, yet the work never falls on them. But somehow this is normalized and encouraged of seniors? Very toxic.

Pros: It is a very challenging environment. A lot of code needs to be implemented fast and deployed fast to meet customer needs. The whole company is very customer-obsessed and always ready to respond to customers as the highest priority. It is a great place where you can learn a lot in a short period of time. When you need help, a lot of people and a lot of departments are willing to help you get things through. Most of the people are smart and super diligent. My manager probably only sleeps for 4-5 hours and is constantly working everywhere.

Cons: All condemnation of work-life balance is wrong, because there is NO LIFE at all. After 1.5 months of working 12 hours a day, 6 days a week to meet a hard deadline without payroll for extra hours, now the consolation is I can work at home on Sundays or on weekday nights till 11 PM after I leave work at about 6 PM. Although, my manager works even longer and my colleagues are similar.
