Pros

Amazing people who love their craft, a mature engineering department, bleeding-edge technology and tools, high pay, and great benefits.

Cons

Working yourself to death to move up in the technical track will only put you at risk of getting paid too much, followed by severance. They drill you about having impact, but in the end, it has no value.

Advice to Management

Stop making rash, short-sighted decisions.
