Pros

Promote from within if that is your cup of tea. Compensation is average. This is something for people who just want the average corporate job.

Cons

Very high turnover rate, you will rarely meet people who have been with the company for 2+ years. Workplace feels cramped. They strive to be very "frugal" in terms of benefits for employees.

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.
