Pros

Culture and teamliness are fantastic. Pay and compensation are good, even if a little inflexible.

Cons

SRE in particular was treated as a dumping ground for legacy code, poorly built products, and all the ugly parts of on-call. Managers were heavily protected from the rigors of IC work, and a disconnect formed.

The promotion system was very broken and stopped being effective my final two years.

Advice to Management

I don't think I need to say anything to them. Most of my team left in short succession, all giving the same feedback to the director.
