Pros

Amazing company to work for!

Both for new graduates and seasoned engineers.

Lots of amazing work that needs to be done.

Leadership seriously cares for their people and will make sure that one is not overworked.

Lots of career mobility and promotion based on merit!

Cons

Pay is lower than most FANG-like companies.

One could make almost 33% - 50% more money working elsewhere, but note that the work-life balance will be impacted accordingly.

Advice to Management

Ensure that the pay is in line with what the industry is paying. This will incentivize folks to stay. Also ensure that stock refreshers are a thing, otherwise, I will leave after my RSU completes vesting :).
