Pros

Fast paced, day goes by quickly. Freedom to run area as you see fit. Senior management receptive to suggestions and changes. Good associates.

Cons

No work/life balance. Short sighted at times as the push for continuous improvement doesn't allow for systems to become established and work. Difficult to remove under-performing employees.

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.
