Wlb is amazing. Did 5-6 hour days on last team. Coworkers were chill. Now I work more (6-7 hour days) cause I'm on a systems team, but I get to learn a lot about how EC2 servers are run. My manager cares about my learning and I get basically an hour a week with the tech lead where I can ask them questions.
Have been able to meet a couple principal engineers and they've even reviewed some of my work.
I have nothing bad to shared about my experience so far.
Did I mention I don't have deadlines?
