Engineering team of 22 here. We use Notion for engineering documentation, RFC tracking, on-call runbooks, and architecture decision records. It's adequate. We bounced off Confluence three years ago in part because of its UX and Notion is genuinely a better authoring experience. Where it falls short for engineering: code block syntax highlighting is fine but linking to actual repository code requires manual maintenance. Diagram tools are limited - we embed Excalidraw and Mermaid heavily. Search consistently misses content I know I wrote. The mobile experience is not where on-call engineers need it to be. We've stayed because migration cost is high and the alternative isn't dramatically better.
