Pros

Great people, non-toxic culture. There's politics, like there is everywhere, but it's a tolerable level. It's not a startup anymore. The company has 180k+ customers, and engineering for production stability is where the focus is. It's a rewarding challenge, but not the kind of "move fast/cowboy coding" work that you get away with at a young startup.

Cons

The company is highly distributed globally. The time zone differences can be an enormous challenge at times. The COVID travel lockdown has made this substantially worse.
