Vantaggi
Non IT Teams are good. International teams, people from all continents. Their focus on data is good. A/B testing. Excellent centralized application monitoring metrics.
Svantaggi
Claims to be agile with most teams following scrum. In reality, product owners are project managers who micromanage the team. Development managers are there just to ensure engineers accept whatever timelines POs demands. Absolutely no consideration for architecture or design. Code the fastest dumbest thing, and you are appreciated. Take a little effort to put in a good design, then manager starts complaining you are not delivering fast enough. For bugs, put in workarounds. Try finding the root cause, and fixing it, then you are not fast enough. They would rather put in a workaround to delay the issue by a month than spent time to fix the root cause. The most common complaint from all software engineers (from all continents) is that their team has the worst code base they have seen in their career. Scalability is more often achieved by throwing in tons of servers, instead of writing code designed to scale. Bad for software career, don't join here! If you join, leave within a year.
