Pros

Some smart people. Good technical challenges, but it depends on your team. Good benefits, including healthcare.

Cons

An unhealthy amount of middle managers, especially in engineering.

A lot of inexperienced engineering managers leading burnt-out teams.

Career progression and compensation is a joke.

Can coast if you're after a salary and a comfortable job.

Advice to Management

Trim the fat in middle management.
