Pros

Every change to the application is measured, which makes measuring your impact easier. Projects are deep and all-encompassing. The promotion process is pretty detailed so you know what's expected from you.

Cons

Every change is measured, so it takes a while to release new features. New employees are probably overwhelmed if they haven't worked at a company of this size before. Product often pats themselves on the back but doesn't give credit to engineers, but this probably happens everywhere.

Advice to Management

My biggest gripe is around how data science can hold up a feature based on a 7-day analysis, causing engineers to spiral around a crash that was apparent during that 7 days when it may not even be an issue. My recommendation is to take the analysis but not have engineers necessarily swarm on the 'issue' until it's confirmed.
