Pros
-Everybody thinks it is the best thing ever to work here, meaning morale is good -Big name clients if that's your thing -Catered lunch and various parties/ company trips just for fun -React will be the 'right choice' for every project, so you'll be able to stick to your comfort zone there -You can constantly brag to your friends about how awesomely revolutionary your company is, as if you contribute to that somehow. Lots of opportunities to talk about winning Webbys and disrupting stuff and patting yourself on the back
Cons
-Everybody thinks it is the best thing ever to work there, meaning the ability to see flaws and get better at weak areas is limited -Engineering is a mess, focus on front-end only limits how much anybody can actually engineer. Focus is placed heavily on creating something that looks good rather than performs well. -They say it's not hierarchical -> It sort of is. You either get into the 'in' crowd, in which case your code can suck and no one will care, or you are somewhere on the fringes and at the risk of losing your job. -Designers want to make sexy cool things that engineers are never briefed on and can't really deliver given, you know, cross-browser compatibility issues -Hipsters everywhere you turn. -Working in Dumbo is a drag

Pros
Smart people who will keep you constantly learning. Nice convenience benefits such as catered lunch at some offices.
Cons
A huge amount of deep-rooted hubris from the senior leadership that runs deep into the culture of the company. A tolerance of [and sometimes attraction to] arrogance and egotistical behavior that fuels an environment of competition and humiliation. Sr. leaders - and particularly partners - do not miss a bit to humiliate you in front of others. The partners are some of the worst human beings to have ever walked the face of the earth. True wolves in sheep's clothing. They will pat you with one hand and stab you with the other. As long as they feel like they are "winning" or "being better than others", they are ok. They are the scum of the scum and unable to listen to critique or do any self-reflection. The company lacks direction and strategic clarity. It's a constant drive to be "the best" or "to win" and the only path to get there is looks - the thought goes that if it looks good, people will be fooled to pay for it. Clients buy into the farce and reinforce the feedback loop. It's a "no values and no principles" environment. Anything goes as long as it's making the partners rich. Companies that act like this usually end up in huge legal trouble at some point and this is definitely a risk for Work & Co. Lots of money but lots of jain time too. The technology department used to have inspiring leaders but they are leaving one by one. What once was a far-reaching, exploratory, learning, and risk-taking department is settling on very simple, repetitive and crappy projects that add very little to someone's career.
