Pros

* The engineering team moves very quickly! We make decisions fast and ship code fast. * We work with cutting-edge technology. * EPD are owners: typically engineers and a designer or PM will work on a large vertical slice of the application and design/build one or many features from start to finish. * The feedback loop is really small: we often get feedback from the other teams at BoomPop for new features within a couple of hours. * The company takes transparency seriously as is clear from the weekly All Hands.

Cons

* We are light on automated testing. It's a blindspot that we're working to improve! * We highly value communication and team collaboration, which is awesome, however, some individuals who do their best work in silos interpret this a "cliquish" behavior, or "the old guard." * The Engineering team specifically is lacking representation.
