Pros

Right product, right market, right fit, for the most part the right leaders. I learned more, saw more, did more in my time here than anywhere else. I feel like it was a once and a lifetime ride.

Cons

They've reached the point where they seem to no longer value the input of the people that have been there a while and made them successful. They are over complicating the requirements of achieving their next level of growth and it's causing a ton of heartburn.

Pros

Smart, talented, and supportive colleagues. Interesting products and the opportunity to work on technology that impacts many customers. Good work-life balance in most teams. Collaborative culture with opportunities to learn from experienced peers. Strong brand recognition and valuable experience for your resume

Cons

Cons Recognition is lacking, especially for individual contributors. Strong performance and consistent delivery do not necessarily translate into career advancement, promotions, or meaningful salary increases. Growth opportunities appear limited for ICs, while management roles seem to receive a greater share of advancement and compensation opportunities. After several years, many individual contributors may find themselves reaching a career plateau with few clear paths for progression. If career growth, promotion opportunities, and compensation advancement are important priorities, it may be worth evaluating other opportunities once you’ve gained experience here
