Pros
  • Great mission.
  • Modern and accessible management.
  • Good velocity.
  • Great future prospects.
  • Good technical challenges.
  • A lot of great and positive people that are already working there.
  • Access to learning materials.
Cons
  • As of 2020, contractors could fill a bit out of the system and not be able to use all planning tools that employees were using.
  • Compared with working on a startup, some processes will slow you down, but this will happen anyway if you choose to work in a mature company with lots of developers.
  • No dedicated R&D department.
Advice to Management
  • Promote learning and sharing of knowledge inside the company (check for example "Unstructured Knowledge Sharing" post from the Artsy Engineering Blog).
