Pros

High salary. High-value stocks. Two pizza size teams. Easy coding interviews (good and bad).

Cons

Easy coding interviews (good and bad). Prioritize deliveries vs having reliable/good designs from the beginning. During COVID time, they do not care if employees work extended hours.

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.
