Pros

Amazing Benefits. Passionate People. Diverse Teams. Progressive Culture. Good work/life balance. Actually cares about its employees deeply. Great pay.

Cons

Different teams can give very different experiences. Not given a ton of direction, need to be very self-guided. Has grown very fast recently, and sometimes left some teams and structures disorganized.

Pros

The people. So nice, so passionate (albeit in pockets). Benefits! Great insurance and vacation.

Cons

Quite corporate. Rigid structure. There is reluctance to take risks. Difficult to move between projects or roles as a producer.

Pros

Great benefits, pays well, can work on some very interesting problems.

Cons

Work hours are from 10-7 and hardly anyone actually works that, so stuff can move at a snail pace. Getting help from central teams can be painful, especially if they're way off hours. Some of the culture can get a bit overwhelming too and you can end up feeling pretty lonely if you don't drink the koolaid.
