Pros

You get to meet the super smart people around bubbling with ideas and excitement. No other place with such customer obsession in true sense.

Cons

People churn and burn out of team or org at a lightning pace. One day, you would be discussing the opportunities with a smart employee, next day you would know they left last evening! Disturbing politics@work. Managers can be really mean and screw your dream to last long. Not all are lucky. Some end up in really bad teams and can have a nightmare of a work life!

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.
