Pros

Industry-leading technologies, great project and one of the most talented people I had to work with throughout my career. Given the company size, most of decisions are made fast and start from engineers and go bottom-up.

Cons

Work-life balance is not great, while I've never been forced to work over-time, it was alert my choice. Atmosphere here pushes everyone to always deliver more, always raise the bar.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
