Pros

They did a mob-programming session whilst I was there.

1:1 was also solid - this might be because I had a relatively good manager.

Cons

There were a couple of good senior engineers that will be fun to work with.

Some engineers will want to nitpick your PR to oblivion to show they know what they are doing, up to the point where they'd have to come back to apologize a couple of times for not reading what your actual PR does.

This turned into an exhausting cycle.

Advice to Management

Not much advice, but if there was a way to handle PR vampires like the above, the teamwork would not feel like hell.
