Pro: huge impact, great pay, awesome coworkers, always something to learn with being at the forefront of datacenter server architectures.
Con: it’s a technical job but we have an admin manager somehow. Admin/non-technical managers don’t have any purpose so they worry about metrics, creating meetings no one is interested in, and volunteering other people to do favors to make themselves look good.
My manager is great in that he knows his primary purpose is to filter the bullshit admin stuff away from us so we can get work done. He’s pretty good at it.
