Pros

Nice office. Good benefits. Fun events. Cool people. Opportunities to grow and learn.

Cons

Lenovo ThinkPads

Frequent reorganizations Elitist SWE culture Lots of process, but most of it unhelpful Becoming heavy on non-technical hires

Advice to Management

Don't be embarrassed to admit that a service isn't essential to the business.

Don't do it fast; do it right. Follow industry-standard best practices. Automate.

Stop the developer worship. It's stressful and alienates the rest of engineering.
