Pros

Work-life balance not at all what others will tell you about FAANG Great manager Great peers Great work culture Great pay Great benefits (cheaper health insurance than my private plan for the same coverage, and additional unexpecteds like on-demand legal assistance)

Kontras

Dissonant, disjointed onboarding process, with trainings frequently divorced from the reality of day-to-day development Huge swaths of technology no one actually uses anymore Ask any engineer about something onboarding says to use and the response is "oh, I actually do xyz instead" Senior engineers, while extremely friendly and helpful, don't have enough time to meaningfully coach new hires Awful, insufficiently deep or fully nonexistent documentation for large, complex services

Pros

Ambitious projects if you're in the right team. Typically great team-mates. Don't believe the memes, the ppl are not back stabbing jerks but are overall genuinely nice. Not constrained by budgets when building cool things. Tools while sometimes clunky are powerful.

Kontras

Schizophrenic lack of focus, entire teams get split, merged and upended multiple times a quarter. Some product managers are disconnected from reality. It didn't use to be the case, the PM-Ts were previously top notch. You're pushed to vibe code everything. Established products with loyal customers are getting neglected. Newer VP level leaders don't seem to know what they are doing. Veteran OG VP level leaders are either leaving in droves or seem stressed or checked out.
