Pros
  • The pay is above market (usually).
  • The engineers are smart, and you can learn a lot.
Cons
  • The culture can be very demanding and toxic. Only join if you can handle pressure.
  • AI is being pushed everywhere as if it's going to solve everything. Leadership asked engineers to 3x their productivity with AI, which is ridiculous.
Advice to Management

AI is not a panacea.
