Good work-life balance, decent pay, and nice coworkers
Software Dev Engineer II • Current Employee
Chicago, Illinois, United States
January 23, 2024
Pros: WLB so far has been really good for me. On-call rotations can be tough sometimes (I am in infrastructure), but otherwise there's a lot to learn. Salary is pretty good for the location, and coworkers are solid. There are pretty good learning opportunities too, with access to the latest tech in the infra space.
Cons: Job stability is decent, but rumors of layoffs and occasional contractor or job post freezing can be a tad unsettling. Engineers overall feel that leadership can be quite bureaucratic, leading to some poor business decisions. As an early-career engineer, I don't really feel the impact of this.

Pros: - Great benefits
- People are very nice
- Opportunities to try different roles
- Good career future
Cons: - The Seattle office is where all management and central personnel are. If you aren't in that office, it's hard to show management you are working hard.
- There's a lot of pressure on project/pod managers. This is just a hunch, but I can tell by looking at them.
