Pros

Good work-life balance, with a hybrid work arrangement.

Can take PTO without any concerns.

Cons

Even if you have visibility among senior management and do your job perfectly, even above your level, you may not get promoted.

Simply because there are already engineers who have worked longer in the same position. Time is not a good measure of work quality.

The annual raise is low. The yearly bonus is terrible. The pay itself is lower than peers.

This will be a trade-off for good work-life balance.
