      Pros

      Above average compensation, but, not as good as other FANG companies. Access to a lot of good engineers. Ownership of projects, but, your experience may vary. Small teams. Push for usage of Rust. Scale of problems. Looks very good on your resume. Clear path to promotion.

      Cons

      Internal tools are a complete and utter piece of crap. This one made me want to quit several times, coming from start ups, that would use the latest from open source tools. Goal for firings to management. No free food. :(

      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.
