Pros

As an engineer, I actually enjoyed the requirement for all code to be peer-reviewed. You can learn faster, and you know that everything going out the door is quality work. The benefits package is excellent. I loved the recreational travel reimbursement.

Cons

The only con would be that there is no longer a dedicated UI team. Each engineer is responsible for their own UI, with varying results.

My understanding is they broke up the UI team a few years ago in favor of the "speed wins" mantra.

Advice to Management

The website could benefit from a dedicated UI team.
