Pros
Your coworkers? For the most part are amazing. Sure there's always going to be some people you don't get along with but that's the same anywhere. They really take your needs into consideration and if you prove to them you're a hardworker, they'll treat you like family.
Cons
Underpaid depending on where you're living, no benefits yet but last I heard we were looking into some options there, almost guaranteed that you will work holidays.

Total compensation is top of the market.
Good benefits, matching 401k, free DEXA scans, nice HQ.
Cons
Chaotic management.
Violatile stock price, one year you can make a lot of money with your RSUs, the next year its all worthless.
Progression is hard, on paper they have a standardized rubric for leveling engineers but when it comes to calibration that's when the gaslighting and the caveat starts.
