Pros

Code quality is outstanding. Development environment outstanding as well. (You don't waste any time at all troubleshooting "configurations" and "containers" and whatnot.)

Cons

I'm giving it one star for "Diversity & Inclusion" because those of us with families and kids were more like outcasts in that company.
