Pros

- Some brilliant people around. - Large-scale tech one has no chance to see outside global companies like this. - Peer-to-peer mentality, few if any walls and silos. - Good engineering culture in key systems. - Transfers between departments are encouraged. - Compensation, obviously!

Cons

- Being placed to a team was a huge hurdle, as team headcount was short to non-existent. Try to join before Q4 :) - Remote work setup in 2020 was sometimes problematic, mostly from the org side. - Internal everyday tech moves quite quickly and may be sometimes not as reliable and slow you down or block. - Engineers (and sometimes even manages) do oncall shifts.
