Pros

Some of the brightest coworkers I've ever had.

Interesting product and problems to work on.

Great tech stack at the time: Haskell, Rust, and Nix.

Cons

Limited engagement across teams. A large enterprise environment could sometimes make HR tasks difficult. Interfacing with lots of legacy systems. Politics across different divisions can strongly impact what the team gets to work on.

Advice to Management

Keep seeking great engineers. Try to make more space for independent teams to own their technology choices.
