    Business Outlook

    Pros

    Very smart, helpful, and friendly colleagues. Tons of perks, they truly make you feel welcome in the office. Excellent engineer teams and tons of opportunities to work on a variety of technologies. Minimal red tape, people actually discuss ideas, plan together, and trust each other to execute. Management structure is surprisingly flat, so there are great learning and networking opportunities.

    Cons

    The teams / desks do seem a bit siloed, but I've still seen significant levels of collaboration between teams. Makes me think this is just a reflection of my limited experience in the company. Overall I can't really complain. Only real thing is there seems to be a little tension concerning return to office and what's reasonable for remote scheduling. E.g. there's a few sick people in the office here and there, and strict office hour requirements kinda muddied the waters. I think there's a middle ground here that's reasonable if teams can show they execute well.
