Pros

* Great technology stack. * Great service.

Cons

* It's a thoroughly dysfunctional company. * Everyone is terrified of taking responsibility for anything. Decisions don't get made. * The people in charge don't understand the service, and in the rare cases when they make decisions, they're based largely on what they think won't get them in trouble, not what will be set for the company or the service. * Salaries are low for experienced people.
