Pros: It's great that SearchApi offers solid remote options; that's a huge plus for a modern tech company. As a Software Engineer, I've appreciated the ability to work from home a few days a week. It really helps manage personal appointments and avoid traffic in San Francisco.
Cons: Even with good work flexibility, the workload for API development can get intense. There's often pressure to meet tight deadlines, making it tough to truly disconnect. Sometimes you feel like you're always 'on'.
Advice to Management: Try to better manage project scopes and resource allocation to ease the pressure on engineering teams during peak periods. More transparency on roadmap changes would also help.
