Pros

Talented peers. Gain skills in highly demanded tech tools. Adds high impact achievements to your resume.

Cons

Good team culture is hit or miss. People will hit you up all hours, all days. Maintaining a work/life balance is a constant struggle. You never have time to attend conferences or do passion projects. Not the best place for nontraditional candidates, in my opinion.

Advice to Management

Make this a place engineers want to stay long-term by supporting work/life balance and career and educational development (outside of assigned projects).

Hire more gender-diverse/nontraditional SDMs.
