Pros

RSU stocks present a potential entrapment; they can be withdrawn before completing one year of joining. However, it's worth noting that many employees have been laid off before this period concludes.

Cons

- Maintaining a healthy work-life balance is virtually non-existent; anticipate working a minimum of 12 hours daily. - The product stability leaves much to be desired, as there are frequently ongoing incidents. - On-call duties are a monthly requirement, including weekends, adding to the strain of work responsibilities.

Pros

We can essentially use AI without any limit right now. The pay and compensation is industry leading but that's how they get you to stay.

Cons

The engineering organization is technologically stagnant — from CI pipelines, to sec/ops practices and overall architecture, everything is locked into legacy practices with little room for outside perspectives. Attempts to introduce modern tools or new ideas are consistently met with resistance rather than curiosity. There's also a stark tenure gap. Most engineers leave within a year or two once they recognize the limited ability to drive change, while those who stay long-term — often 8+ years — have rarely worked outside this environment and lack exposure to broader industry practices.
