Pros

- talent density is extremely high - coworkers are kind-hearted and driven - high trust, no politics, low ego - lots of autonomy and agency given to ICs and managers - compensation and benefits are top tier

Cons

- it's hard to get by on 40 hours a week here. risk of burnout is real, but thankfully most people do a good job of taking PTO when needed - can be stressful given the potential societal impact of your work
