Pros

health insurance. that's it, that's all. and its really easy to get hired as long as you can maintain a ridiculous work pace and don't have any felonies. great place for smokers since they only use oral drug tests.

Cons

Worked to death, mandatory OT, when I left it must've been in really fine print that the employer contributed part of your 401k wasn't available until you'd been there three years. Management is ridiculous

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.
