Pros

1. Get to work on a scale in million customers, daily ~1mn rps 2. if lucky and land up in a good team, can work with good engineers that push yourself

Cons

1. High pressure, fast delivery rate (1 failure will set you back your achievements) 2. You need to lead your career from day1, not very supportive managers (in my case)

Pros

Overall a great place to grow technically — learned a lot about large-scale distributed systems, production operations, and ownership. Had the chance to work with many smart and supportive coworkers across teams.

Cons

* On-call rotations can be hectic depending on the team * Internal processes and cross-team politics can sometimes be draining * Like many large companies, your experience heavily depends on your manager — a bad manager can really impact day-to-day work and overall morale

Pros

Incredible technology, happy customers, on the cutting edge

Cons

Lack of sales methodology, no visibility into the business above your direct manager, even then it's seldom. Business processes and programs are an absolute mess when it comes to execution, intent is good but very disorganized. Layoffs that make you scratch your head...meaning, why cut crucial roles when others are way less important and still here.
