Pros

Incredible engineers, some of the smartest people out there Benefits are top notch

Cons

Management in AR pillar is bad. Horrible work life balance Extremely high expectations from senior ICs plus very little support. Mixed messaging from management, HUGE pivots every 3 months in average, a lot of bureaucracy and insufficient tooling. "Impact culture" and "ownership" are handled in a way that makes collaboration much harder than it needs to be. They are clearly managing people out at this point.
