Pros

Great work environment, with awesome, challenging, and satisfying projects in diverse technologies, even within the same team. Good compensation and benefits.

Cons

Promotion from SDE II to SDE III and beyond might be difficult to get as the company grows.

Advice to Management

Giving more opportunities for promotions even if someone hasn't worked on "complex" projects.

Delivering on a constant basis should matter, even though the projects someone got were not super "complex".
