Pros

The pay is good compared to smaller companies but don’t rely on total comp because the bonus and/or RSUs significantly drop in later years.

Cons

The biggest con is commuting five days per week. My manager has reminded us multiple times it has to be all five days and I haven’t tested out how flexible that is. It’s also team roulette. I had a team that was great that really valued work like balance and flexibility and took care of the whole person. Then I moved to a different team where everyone is working almost double time and the workload doesn’t slow 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.
