Pros

Modern technology stack and talented engineers. Good exposure to cloud technologies and distributed systems.

Cons

The engineering culture became heavily focused on delivery and short-term performance, with limited emphasis on coaching, career development, or engineer wellbeing. Team morale was extremely low during my time there, and I saw multiple experienced engineers leave or be managed out. Frequent changes in priorities and organisational direction made it difficult to plan long-term work.
