Pros

The pay is typically good, tech is good, free commute

Cons

The benefits are not as competitive as many large tech companies (I pay over $600/mo for health insurance, max 2% employer 401k match), feels like churn and burn culture, you can't just be good at your job, you have to be 98th percentile ambitious before getting promoted in most orgs, most people only stay in a role for 18 months to 2 years because there's pressure to always be innovating and documenting everything you do but all the internal attrition just results in a lack of expertise.

Pros

Ambitious projects if you're in the right team. Typically great team-mates. Don't believe the memes, the ppl are not back stabbing jerks but are overall genuinely nice. Not constrained by budgets when building cool things. Tools while sometimes clunky are powerful.

Cons

Schizophrenic lack of focus, entire teams get split, merged and upended multiple times a quarter. Some product managers are disconnected from reality. It didn't use to be the case, the PM-Ts were previously top notch. You're pushed to vibe code everything. Established products with loyal customers are getting neglected. Newer VP level leaders don't seem to know what they are doing. Veteran OG VP level leaders are either leaving in droves or seem stressed or checked out.
