Pros

You have access to learning resources

Cons

No promotions Heavy workload Poor paid time off options compared to the industry Company is shameless, no promotions or hiring but increased workload and deadlines are constantly postponed This position is an L3, meaning you can't move to AWS or access a lot of other perks but the company forces you to execute the responsibilities of an L4 They don't even do employee satisfaction survey anymore cause they know, they are screwing us over and wasting our time and refuse to create a better work environment.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
