      Pros

      Pay was ok, Nice office (but see below). Great location. For me it was easy to get to, good public transport and cycling when weather permitted.

      Cons

      Chaotic (desktop and device dev), Android dev appeared a little more organized. Even though office was nice it's a little too noisy and disorganized.

      Pros

      Free ebook every week, good benefits, free lunch every day if you’re in the office.

      Cons

      Extremely siloed to the point where people in the same team don’t even communicate. A lot of people that are hired are not fit for the role they are hired for. A lot of favortism, same people getting recognition over and over again even for mediocre work. They try to sell this image of being a friendly brand/company to work for but there is a good amount of hostility, cliques and politics within the org that make it difficult to navigate. Pay is not competitive.
