Pros

Good salaries/compensation. A sign-in bonus is good as well.

Lots of talented people (some of them are pricks as well).

Cons
  • PagerDuty: 15 minutes to respond in the event of an alert.
  • Managers' main goal is to suck blood out of you. Most of them are micromanagers.
Advice to Management
  • Stop hiring managers from consulting companies who have never written a single line of code.
