Pros

career development, fast paced environment so never bored, entrusted with a lot of ownership and business impacting decisions.

Cons

Culture is very political and a lot of management strong arms their reports to deliver results while providing little if any leadership. Sink or swim environment. I lasted 5 years but seen so many last less than a year.

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.
