Pros

Interesting problems in distributed systems, cloud deployments at scale, data processing, data visualizations, performance tuning, and of course, database systems.

Peers are industry leaders in their technical areas.

Rocket ship, hyper-growth phase.

Building what will become the most prevalent Data Platform.

Cons

Rocket ship, hyper growth phase. Leadership favors top-down processes. First job for most of the early engineers, being balanced out by strong hiring in 2020/2021, but there's a tendency towards cargo culting.
