Pros

Pay; Benefits (good insurance, annual stock and cash awards); Remote work is accessible; Generally collaborative, easy to work with most;

Cons

Work-life balance is atrocious. Expected availability on vacation. Long hours; reporting OT discouraged. Code base is beyond messy and convoluted. Traffic in SoCal... if you do get to leave at a reasonable hour, you'll still spend ~10-30 minutes per highway mile to get home.
