Pros

- capable colleagues - interesting projects that can have a worldwide impact - established processes

Cons

- cutthroat culture, a person in my team was put on improvement plan twice a year - salary was good at first, but compared to the competition they lack behind - a lot of meetings - there is an expectation that you'll work unpaid overtime to complete unrealistic deadlines that are artificially set

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.
