Pros
  1. Managers I meet are very responsible and helpful.
  2. There are smart, experienced engineers who still feel passion about tech.
  3. A big company where you can work on different tech stacks.
Cons
  1. Like every big company, politics sometimes influence long-term decisions.

  2. Although there are smart, passionate engineers who took responsibility, there are also quite a big portion of engineers who simply do not care and are not interested.

  3. The reward system can be designed better to encourage impactful work people.
