Pros

Good place to develop your skills. Management is generally supportive and willing to help you grow your career. Good comp for your level.

Cons

Tech stack is riddled with debt from years of rapid growth. The company trajectory is constantly focused on the next milestone, and it has been harder and harder to develop in an increasingly unstable and unmaintained codebase.
