Pros

Great peers and management principles, good salaries, you can learn a lot, work self-dependently, and select your own career path, flexible working (e.g. for home), international atmosphere

Cons

Work-life-balance could be better, pressure to perform, lost the "start up/day 1 mentality" it still used to have a few years ago and is now a large company with decisions being made top down

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.
