Pros

It's a good place if you are starting off your career. You will have an opportunity to own and do a lot of work, and grow your skillset.

Cons

Once you have a little experience, it is time to get out because engineering is not valued in the company and you will not have any realistic long-term career opportunities.

Benefits for experienced folks are also terrible compared to other engineering companies in terms of RSUs and other long-term incentives.

Advice to Management

You can no longer be a business model company. Without innovation and R&D, your company will not grow. You are no longer playing in a price-sensitive market. Start valuing your engineers and provide them with realistic career opportunities.
