Pros

Good people, impactful work. No shortage of ambitious projects for those looking for a challenge.

Cons

Culture has declined drastically in recent years. The leaders making timeline commitments are siloed from the actual work, leaving engineers to burn out trying to meet unrealistic deadlines with minimal structural support. Extremely meeting heavy, with discussions often favoring harmony over honesty. Non-existent work/life balance.
