      Pros

      - Huge variety of products, projects, and locations - Good opportunities for internal mobility - Always hiring for something - Stock awards of a currently-healthy stock - Open to re-hiring if affected by layoffs

      Cons

      - Oncall duties for engineers, possibly onerous depending on team - Sometimes the company grows at a rapid pace, sometimes it rapidly downsizes with massive layoffs, even in seemingly "safe" orgs - Prefers to reward performance with stock rather than raises

      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.
