Pros

Good place to work. Smart people, doing small jobs as well as big jobs. You will own something. Good pay.

Cons

Get ready to be frugal. This is normally a good thing, but sometimes it is a fault when not managed intelligently. If you don't like something at the company you can change it, but get ready to fight an uphill battle. Still better than M$ though when it comes to inspiring change.

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.
