Pros

Pays very well Great benefits Great remote options

Cons

Exhaustion caused by working 24 x 7 Unhealthy focus on Metrics and trend evaluation Will overwhelm a new employee for 6 months. I should probably use the word "grind" here, but it is overused and too honest. Management more married to work principles than employees, process over people. You will discover that blending in the background becomes a better tactic than drawing attention. Opposite of their own principles.

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.
