Pros: For a Software Engineer, the hybrid model really helps. I'd say most weeks are a solid 40 hours, which is decent for the tech industry. You can often make your own schedule and work remotely a couple days.
Cons: Sometimes product development deadlines are just crazy. It's tough when you're expected to pull longer hours, especially close to a big release. The San Francisco office can feel pretty intense then.
Advice to Management: Try to set more realistic deadlines for product releases. It would help prevent burnout among the engineering teams, especially in a fast-paced startup environment.
