Pros

The salary was very competitive for the region I worked in at least, the benefits were decent. Work/life balance was OK but only if you don't get caught up trying to compete with all the hard chargers.

Cons

Filled with script kiddies and hot shots who lack any real talent other than the ability to scrape enough BS together to generate nonsensical blogs or presentations in a pathetic attempt to validate their careers. The bulk of them think they can do something way more clever than what the entire industry has already established as best practice, which in a place with experienced and pragmatic engineers would be known as innovation, but in a place like this its more like tragic comedy.

Pros

People, Mission, Culture, Technology, Remote. You work on projects and technologies that actually impact and improves the day to day lives of people around you, the community and the Country

Cons

Pay, No much room for upward mobility. If you are a high performer, you'll struggle as the structure rewards years spent in the company vs level of expertise or experience.
