Pros
  • Very competitive pay
  • Lot of learning opportunities
  • Great for career growth
  • Flexible hours (depends on team)
  • Full remote work (at least for now during COVID)
  • Good diversity; worked with very talented individuals who are not the typical white/East Asian male.
Cons
  • Depending on your team, you could have an amazing or terrible experience.
  • Leadership principles are great, but sometimes people use them to be jerks, especially to newer hires.
  • Vacation days are not too competitive.
Advice to Management

Let your employees continue to remote work after the pandemic if they want to. I think we all realize now how productive we all are, even at home.
