Great compensation and benefits, but extremely demanding and high-stress environment
Pros
Compensation is very competitive, especially for new grads Strong benefits package, including good health insurance Opportunity to learn quickly due to high ownership and fast pace The technical challenges are meaningful, and there is a lot to learn across the company.
Cons
Extremely busy workload; maintaining work-life balance requires constant and intentional effort Difficult to fully disconnect, as there is always more work to do High-pressure environment that can lead to sustained stress Overall atmosphere feels increasingly anxious, which may impact physical and mental well-being over time Documentation is often limited, so knowledge transfer relies heavily on talking to other people. This can be exhausting, and not everyone has the time or willingness to share a lot of context.
