Pros

Surrounded by smart people! Some teams are good at work/homelife balance. It's up to you to try to find one that values that. Always opportunity for challenging yourself on new projects and ways to advance your skills. Great vacation/PTO time if you are willing to take it

Cons

Compensation over time. Pay increases are small and performance based. Very hard to get valuable increases to support the cost of living increase in Seatte Long hours at times and no understanding from those who have no problem being plugged in 24/7

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.
