Pros

Great group of engineers and technologies. Very engineering driven culture which sometimes doesn't work for employees looking to grow into technology management rather than specific engineering management roles. Great benefits and equity (options + RSUs). Base salary seems to be a lower (atleast 5-15% lower) than the rest of the industry.

Cons

Very engineering driven and not enough opportunities to grow inside the company. Engineers will remain engineers seems to be the motto of the company. No opportunity to work for diverse groups inside the company. The HR policies seem to make it extremely difficult to transfer out from one group to another group; that said HR works very hard for the employees
