Pros

A great company that seems to truly care for its employees. They take feedback seriously (at least from engineers, others less so) and put plans into action when there are complaints about friction. Great pay, great benefits.

Cons

Significant growing pains trying to migrate tech debt into something that scales better globally.

Too much process, bureaucracy, and politics creeping in, although it is inevitable.

Work/life balance is kind of low as there is constant pressure to deliver and show your impact.

Advice to Management

Not sure what they could do better at this point.
