Pros

Simple and easy work with little interference from management as long as you can work to targets. You can listen to music/podcasts/audiobooks to pass the time as the role doesn't require much thinking. I was lucky to work in multiple countries as it's a global organisation.

Cons

Very low salary compared to other companies

Pros

The work-life balance is pretty good. I have never had issues taking time off when I needed to. The pay and benefits are on par with other, similar jobs in the area. There are many long-time employees at the company.

Cons

The company is product-led, so leadership is more concerned with shipping new features than they are with making sure what they have already shipped works well. Restricted stock unit grants always come with a one year vesting cliff, whether an employee has worked at the company for two years or twenty years. They do not appear to trust that long-time employees will continue to stay at the company, even though they have many long-time employees.
