Pros

Full of smart and proactive people. Good pay and benefit. Skyrocketing stocks. Various learning opportunities in many different areas. Good work/life balance. Great work culture.

Cons

As an engineer, you would be coding a lot less than you would at other smaller companies. Sometimes too many meetings even for engineers. Not many system design opportunities in many teams.

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.
