      Pros

      Challenging, you get to work with very smart people, get to work with latest technologies, awesome infrastructure and development tools (continuous deployment, monitoring, very helpful internal wiki, you name it)

      Cons

      If you are not careful you can burn out easily, some teams are having rather unmanageable devops loads, some things can be frustrating, for example some of the aws features are much easier to use if you are external customer

      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.
