Pros

My coworkers are great. I really enjoy working with my team and we get along very well. Both my manager & his manager were previous engineering leads that worked up to senior positions, which I really like.

Cons

Documentation is not the best and there's a lot of "tribal knowledge". Some growing pains due to recent expansions, ie. a lot of tools that worked while we were smaller aren't working so well now (work in progress to build new ones though).
