Pros

Talented peers and wide range of problem statements to work on. Opportunities to learn are plentiful.

Cons

Work life balance can take a hit somewhat depending on the team and the compensation model is bad. It’s not rewarding enough even when stock goes down.

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.
