Pros

Product breadth, opportunity to develop and learn is huge. You can work in whatever you are interested in. There is a great website. It's generally easy to switch teams and moving to other roles is encouraged. Mostly smart people around. Compensation is competitive and great potential of stock is a silver-lining on the top of that. *Great Management *Flexibility of work *Work environment is Competitive *Productive Teams Most employees are loving the company and work.

Cons

Sometimes work could be hectic but that's ok. Some managers are political & bad but many are good. Again few teams do not do great work but just operations or maintenance so be choosy. Don't expect great facilities as it's very frugal company but essential benefits are comparable to other good companies. - Takes pride in scaring people of throwing them away of job and in return make them work hard *Compensation *Biased Management *Slow Growth in career

Pros

Medical/ dental/ vision insurance, mental assistance, 401k, lawyer assistance, Career choice, VTO, PTO, vacation time

Cons

Most AMs have avoritism among employees. We get mandatory extra time (now is calling "voluntary" but you have to go when it is schedule) at the end of the year, what makes difficult for some of us when we have kids and they're really rigid about it.

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.
