Pros
  • Comprehensive internal docs.
  • Most colleagues are very nice.
  • High standard code, which is helpful for junior engineers.
  • Satisfactory benefits/insurance.
Cons
  • Stopped perm process and no clear restarting date; internal transfer to other countries has been harder (Don't recommend if you have status concerns).
  • Managers are gaining more power. It could be a disaster if you were assigned to a pushy manager. I don't feel safe sharing constructive feedback with managers/TLs.
  • Small scope, but also depending on teams.
  • Worse food.
