Pros

Pay package and employee stock options (if you can stick for so long)

Cons

Career ambitions not aligned between the time of recruitment and after onboarding, ended up working on product evangelization rather than product engineering. Impractical OKRs were inherited and the leadership was in no mood to entertain the reasons for failure.

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.
