Pros

Hardworking and driven teams A lot of resources for training and development Highly specialised and formalised work environment

Cons

KPI driven culture, driven to deliver results and numbers. Only KPIs, little recognition for other contributions hence employees are limited and hold back on delivering outside of work scope. Burn out and frequent turnover. Easy to move up within team, but difficult to move across to other teams.

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.
