Pros
  • Fast pace
  • Wonderful hands-on meetings
Cons

Culture defined by managers; many are toxic.

A lot of tech debt exists, with many junior engineers writing code under pressure, which leads to poor code quality.

Managers, especially senior ones, try to make an impact and release products for their promotions, not for customers' benefits.

Advice to Management

Balance between customer obsession and a good engineer culture.
