A technical dojo, but not as a long-term creative home
Massive infrastructure -- a real-world playground for large-scale distributed systems to sharpen your technical fundamentals.
Mature process -- broad learning and understanding how the entire distributed architecture and ecosystem work.
Stability & benefits -- strong compensation, resources, and predictable structure; people care about your personal growth.
Work-life balance -- not as good as before, but still above average.

Bureaucracy & slowness -- Shipping anything substantial could feel glacial.
Limited product ownership -- Experimentation wasn’t rewarded the same way as stability.
Frequent re-orgs -- I worked in 2 teams; however, 3 tracks and 8 managers in total.
