Pros

* Amazing pay (One of the best in market) * Amazing perks(Several paid lunch, other perks) * Amazing place to learn some of the most interesting and newest technologies * Amazing place to learn by working with some of the most highly skilled developers * Cooperative environment contrary to competitive one

Cons

* It is pull driven not push driven company and hence even for seeking help, you need to know the right questions. Self motivation and self learning are the only ways to excel even if you are new to the company * Tight deadlines might lead to tough work environment sometimes

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.
