Pros

Great culture overall. Great benefits and good pay. Hybrid and remote flexibility was a big plus, although it seems most of tech is slowly moving away from the full remote support.

Cons

The company can definitely struggle with reorgs and moving people around or shifting charters. As a result, you may get flung around between teams and frequently shift ownership of products. This experience can differ between orgs.
