Pros

Business is doing well. The company IPO'd, so the equity is liquid. The stock price is above the IPO price.

People are friendly.

Remote-friendly with in-office availability if you want.

Work culture is busy, but there is no expectation of working on weekends (unless you are on-call and your system fails).

Cons

• Lots of leadership turnover recently. • The recent focus on coding metrics has people worried. • Eng managers are not very technical on average.
