Pros
  • Work-life balance
  • Skilled coworkers
  • Opportunities to learn and grow
  • Can collaborate with people on and outside of your team
  • They provide $ and equipment to help with home office setup, which is great because we're remote
  • No commute
  • Opportunities to travel with the team to meet IRL.
Cons

A monolith that takes a while to build and run locally, and is hard to get working consistently with thousands of devs committing code.

Worried that hiring too quickly will change culture.

Advice to Management

We waste a lot of time getting things running locally, and tests don't seem to be adequate for pushing to prod without local testing. This has to change.
