Pros

Great engineering principles with good tooling that supports them. Great is you are starting your career you will get great value and principles

Cons

They expect you to not have any type of life unless is dedicated to the company If you are a seasoned engineer they don't value new contributions a lot and they shut down discussions with their "local" jargon based on LPs.

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.
