      Pros

      Casual and relaxed atmosphere. Work life balance. Quarterly bonus . Awesome new CEO. Good health benefits. Excellent commute options (paid vanpool) Nice office location (Seattle)

      Cons

      Company vision and direction still evolving under new CEO. Too much confusion around product priorities Poor collaboration between different groups. Too much politics and castle building in Product Development middle management. One can grow in PD only if he actively participates in dirty politics. Top is full of old timers who have only worked in F5 all their life and most of them don't have a clue how industry is evolving.
