Pros

Good if you want to gain experience with cutting-edge technology.

No shortage of work.

Fast-paced.

Cons

Very stressful.

Joined as a new grad and was pretty much expected to solo a whole migration project, which I somehow managed.

Seattle is somewhat gloomy most of the year.

Advice to Management

Don't be afraid to spend more to make workers' experiences less grueling.
