      Pros

      High visibility/impact. Easy to explain to your friends. Easy to work from home. All the hardware you could ever need. Potential for a lot of money if you can bear to stick around.

      Cons

      Very tedious work; almost no innovation. Physical office space is terrible. You will be expected to work very long hours. Total lack of teamwork/camaraderie.

      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.
