Challenging work environment, never bored, talented people, fast paced. Everyone works hard or harder. You get exposed to the newest technologies. You push yourself to be at your best.

Cons

Tough work life balance. Not a lot of work from home opportunities. Reorg happens too often.

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.
