Pros

Great projects to work on, incredibly smart people to work with, and good compensation

Cons

Sometimes developers are treated like easily replaceable cogs and if you don't get excited about the actual work, there aren't a lot of extraneous benefits to entice great people to stick around.

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.
