Pros

30 days of vacation, stocks, technology as itself.

Cons

There are so many of them, mostly caused by the wrong management decisions and attitude. No possibility to grow and express yourself. Becoming more and more stressful. Quantity is over the quality, they will only ask you for numbers. For delivering them, you will only get a good word and one "thank you". At the beginning, it was OK, you could learn and improve yourself. After that, no way; no time to study new technologies, no time for longer testing and reproducing issues. Rules are changing, load of work is increasing but compensation for it is not coming. Around half of the L2 engineers left this year, L1 is becoming the same. If you are just working and listening to them, you might have a chance to be promoted. Otherwise, forget about it and start looking for a new job.
