Pros
  • Work-life balance is good, though there are occasional night calls; I'm okay with it as it's unavoidable for global teams.
  • At the forefront of AI tools adoption, it provides a good developer experience.
  • Team culture is good, and people are friendly.
  • As the company has real business, things you work on will have real value and not just be throwaway.
  • Due to the sheer size of the company's business, we have to take into account growth and scalability to support global customers, which is good for fostering system design knowledge.
  • Pay and benefits are decent to above average.
Cons

Some projects are very badly written, with an abundance of tech debt. Reliance on contractors doesn't help as well.

Too much processes and dependencies. Some processes are outdated and seem to exist to justify jobs.

There’s a noticeable over-representation of one group, which raises concerns about inclusivity and balanced hiring practices.

Promotion cycle is slow compared to other tech companies; it's more similar to banks.
