      Pros

      Great to work on products which impact millions (or billions) of people. Lots of smart engineers and access to various perspectives. Focus on the customer is a priority and it's fun to interact with your users. Comp is above average. Work life balance is actually good which is not what I had heard before joining.

      Cons

      Some of the internal engineering tools are home grown and focused on scale over usability. There can be a lot of on-call depending on your team and the criticality of the product.

      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.
