Pros
  • Your work has a big impact
  • Good infrastructure and developer tools
Cons
  • Biggest SWE metric is pull request count.
  • On-Calls are extremely busy, 24/7 for a week every 2 or 3 months, and without any compensation.
  • Over-documentation, even for small things.
  • Return to office after growing a lot during remote work forced by COVID.
  • Salary is extremely different based on country.
Advice to Management
  • Better distribute projects. Sometimes an IC has a lot of projects while others have just a small one.
  • Care more about ICs' impact instead of the number of pull requests.
  • Give projects with impact and not just small ones to everyone to have the opportunity to grow.
