Pros

+ You are vested with lots of responsibility + Business turnaround is insanely fast - what you do has an impact + You get really good at your job. REALLY good

Cons

- Worklife balance is atrocious - Tends to attract snakelike personalities. You will be on guard here - Internal services, while great, don't have the type of support external customers get. It's extremely frustrating - Pay is less than other top tier companies

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.
