Pros

- Working on global scale products - Accelerated learning environment - Autonomy. - Can transition to other teams if I want to do so.

Cons

- Not a 'normal' org. That means you are working in a kind of entrepreneur environment, with a lot of responsibility and you need to learn a lot by yourself. - I don't see in my team a lot of work / life unbalance, but you need to move quickly with your tasks. - The first 2 or 3 months you could feel a little overwhelmed with all you need to learn and do from day one. Gradually you're getting it until you master your craft.

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.
