Pros

You can work on almost every area of tech available.

Clear path for career growth. Work/Life balance is possible and encouraged. Flexible working hours. Great CEO.

Cons

Pay is not as competitive as FAANG.

Playing corporate politics becomes more important as you level up.

You will have a major re-org every 6-18 months.

Advice to Management

Chill out on the reorgs.
