Pros

Learned a lot of new software, really got my feet wet as a developer, and felt as if I was treated just like any other engineer.

Cons

No work-life balance. 16-hour workdays were common. Many of my coworkers would sleep at the office so they could keep working.

Advice to Management

Break into smaller teams so that you're able to have more of an individual impact on the day-to-day.
