Pros
There are many great engineers and great people to work with (individual contributors and engineering managers).
Cons
Since the last technology leadership changes, we are seeing a change of culture that already led quite a few key people to leave. It is now a paternalistic top-down directive culture: focus is exclusively on meeting deadlines, with expectations of extra hours. No other cross-teams or people related topics receive attention, and overall there is no visibility and transparency on decisions and choices. Change management is also very poor, with one sided big decision not followed by communications and implementation plans, and very little interest in people feedback and professional growth. Many Engineering Managers are doing a great job to limit the impact on their teams, and many good ones already left. Right now it's not the place to learn how good tech leadership should work.
