Pros

Diverse work force with a lot of interesting backgrounds. Great products that help the world.

Cons

Highly toxic environment, where bad behavior is constantly rewarded. Not much empathy or understanding towards work life balance. Long hours with little to no payoff. HIGH TURNOVER - Lots of highly skilled resources are leaving for better jobs because of the bad management.

Pros

- Easy commute if you live north of Seattle/Bellevue - Decent cafeteria - Decent compensation

Cons

- The level of apathy amongst colleagues is off the charts. Many people are simply coasting and collecting a paycheck. When you try to be a team player and pick up the slack, you simply become a target for blame. - Due to the extremely lax "return to office" policy, the office often feels quite empty when there is plenty of work to be done. Being onsite M-F often leads to more work with little support. - There is a culture of public shaming, with several meetings every week dedicated to project leads targeting individuals to make up for their own lack of technical understanding.
