Pros

It's really comfortable in NYT; don't have to put too much effort.

Good for new grads, but not so much for mid-levels or higher.

Cons

It's a product company – not many technical challenges.

Limited tech stack, hard to onboard new tech products.

DevOps culture is non-existent (it's the engineers' problem along with QA).

Everything has to be Golang; nothing else can be justified.

Tech debt can be substantial.

Meetings, a lot of meetings.
