Pros

Emphasis on executing quickly. Vocally self-critical, not afraid to challenge the status quo. People are generally passionate about their work. Good stock bonuses.

Cons

Toxic individuals and prevalence of bad behavior. Favoritism. Brutal treatment of newer hires. Jockeying for "good" projects. Typical stuff really, but I had an especially bad experience. Don't weigh my opinion more than anyone else's.

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.
