Pros

The salary is very competitive.

Cons

Highly unstable work environment, I had 4 line managers in 6 months. Sooner or later you'll end up with a corporate climber for a manager who will stifle you and resent any kind of independent thought. The company treats people like numbers and regularly (as a matter of annual regularity) make significant numbers of employees redundant. If your manager starts talking about doing "focus" work, just know that the writing is on the wall, and no matter how you perform, you'll be told within 3 months to either meet an impossible set of goals OR accept a "mutually agreed" buy-out.

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.
