Pros

smart people enjoy the work and less smart people complain the work, it's a place that makes you grow up.

Cons

on-call policy really makes people stressful and so far didn't hear there's any reward for on-call guys.

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.
