Pros
If you're a fan of Elon Musk, maybe you'll be able to handle the expected 84-hour work weeks, lack of compensation, constant threat of more layoffs, and heckling from the public.
Cons
After 50% of the company got laid off, I was literally the only engineer left from my original team. Even my manager and staff-level teammates were gone. As I took over oncall duties for my now-deactivated teammate, with nobody to hand the role off to, ever, I saw other remaining engineers doing the same. The next time a critical issue arises, nobody is going to know how to fix it and the entire platform is just going to fail. It's extremely clear that Elon and his goons have no idea what they're doing.
