Pros

There's a few good teams doing good work in Product and Tech, and if you can make your way there and find the right people , you can learn new valuable things

Cons

1) The leadership seems disconnected from reality. The Glassdoor reviews have plunged dramatically in a few quarters, and the leadership when asked about this type of stuff, doesn't seem to care. 2) Lots of MSDs and Managers retaliate openly by hurting your performance review scores and bonuses. 3) Doesn't care about real work, but being a show pony, which is often not the personality good developers often have.

Pros

People are great, I have created amazing connections and friendships along the way. Fun work environment we work hard but are able to play harder. Global reach, often connecting with people around the world.

Cons

Not much mobility and constant change. Hard to be stable in that kind of environment. Many times the plan is not fully complete before expecting execution and very siloed creating duplication of effort and work.
