Pros

Every day is different, you'll never be bored, there's always opportunities to learn new skills. Leadership principles come into action as tie breakers in discussions - the most often used one is "what is the best outcome for our customer?". You are encouraged to look around corners, and engage into vigorous debate as long as you have data to support it.

Cons

Lots of ambiguity, which I personally love since it allows me to add my own personal touch, however may not suit everyone. Frugality can be a blocker especially when you're trying to attend conferences.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
