Pros

A lot of really bright people to collaborate with as long as management stays our of the way.

Cons

A lot of moving parts. Really poor developer onboarding. Pay is not nearly as competitive as it should be considering the complexity of the work. Benefit keep getting reduce. RTO isn't really about productivity. It's about downtown economic impacts.
