Pros

It has some of the best people doing awesome things everyday and pushing the limits of what is possible, the get-it-done atmosphere is greatly appreciated over that of stodgy old corporate cultures

Cons

The company prides itself on being frugal, which is great if you are a stock holder (which I am) but less than optimal when you are an employee. However in the last few months they have begun moving employees to a new campus and filling their buckets with nice perks.

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.
