Pros

The interview process for software engineers is pretty rigorous, making it impossible for mediocre developers to get hired.

Reasonable/not very demanding work load for competent developers.

Free lunches save money and time.

Good upper management people.

Industry leader (helps with new products penetration).

Stocks constantly increase after earning reports every quarter.

Cons

On the flip side, other more well-known (consumer-products tech companies) are targeting the same candidate pool.

Having difficulty hiring the top 1% to 0.1% of developers.

Advice to Management

Increase brand awareness. Compete with other hyped tech companies. Probably bump base salary a little bit more to reach six figures for fresh grad software engineering roles.
