Pros

A ton of new engineers and engineers recently out of college, so you are learning together.

Nice side perks, like taking people to the movies.

Cons

If you are a more experienced engineer, expect to get pushed to become an approved code reviewer and then spend most of your time reviewing code for the less experienced engineers.

Not much opportunity to build new stuff.

The backend was getting quite dated.

The equipment provided at the time was not great beyond the MacBook Pros. The accessories and provided monitors were usually not great.

Pay is substandard.
