Pros

In the essence the company has good structure and values, if you are lucky to fall on a good team working on a good project you will learn a lot and use a lot of AWS and new technologies.

Cons

But if you fall under a bad manager as i did, they will just target you for the next layoff cycle. And not support you enough. Nobody actually cares about what you think. And it sometimes feels like jungle, the strong eats the weak.

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.
