Pros

High operational bar powers up overall technical expertise.

Cons

Plenty of bureaucracy. Depending on a team and manager, might be either good or bad experience. Almost guaranteed crunch time prior re:Invent.

Pros

There are many opportunities to learn and grow into the next position, and the managers are very supportive.

Cons

The workload is excessive, internal regulations are overly strict, and HR’s approach to salary does not seem fair when compared with individual workload and performance.
