Great company, strong DS team, interesting work. Not so great for DS Managers.

It is a great company to work for, very interesting problems to work on, super smart people around.
Cons
Great place to be an IC, don't come here looking for a Manager role. Not great career prospects in the management space. The org has been flattened, with managers pushed to do IC work, unless they have at least 8 DS reports (which most rarely do). With hiring slowed down since 2020, managers can't find enough ICs to fill a team.
