Pros

There were plenty of pros to work at Twitter prior to the acquisition, but now I see none.

Cons

* inadequate salary * very long hours * no or little flexibility in terms of working from home * no proper company structure * no long-term planning or vision for the company * extreme job insecurity: you can be fired for literally anything * only way to grow is by backstabbing * very poor in terms of diversity * has all the bad qualities of a start-up, and none of the good ones
