Pros

* Working in an inspiring team in which you learn everyday * Multinational working environment, * Above average base pay

Cons

* You have no value if you are below L7, * Promotion is conditional to performing at next level without a pay raise. Noone cares if you are performing very well in your current role. * Noone evaluates how VPs and directors managing the business. If you are one of them, you are invincible. That leads to power abuse. You should be lucky enough to be under a good VPs/director's vertical. * Everything is self service. This is resulting in unnecessary bandwidth consumption. * Company's "writing/narrative" culture is a frustration to non-senior managers. Everyone hates it, but noone speak it up.

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.
