Great company to work for
Latest technologies and cutting-edge projects.

Great compensation.

Switching teams is very easy and encouraged.
On-call sucks for the most part, but that depends on the team.

People leave all the time, mostly moving internally.
Work on retaining employees. A lot of good work has been done in the past years, but we're still not there yet.
