      Pros

      - Great Pay - Work with super smart and capable people - Learn a lot when you're on the job

      Cons

      - Team was not prepared for an intern and I had to scramble to get a real project - Got my mentor swithced twice throughout the internship and was a lot of moving pieces - So many release dates to get to that it felt almost useless what I did and not in the way that internships usually do

      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.
