It's okay, but not great
It's okay, but not great
Fast-paced, exciting opportunities to work on. Always something to do, never have to be bored. Smart people to work with.
No work-life balance.
Very hard to get recognition as everyone is trying to outsmart each other.
Crappy legacy systems.
SDES spend so much time interviewing, dealing with other third-party companies instead of doing real SDE work.
Immature development practices here and there.
