Pros

Personally, I've had a very good experience working for Yahoo. I have been offered a number of promotions and gained a lot of valuable experience. However, although I believe that this is the product of my own hard work, it does occasionally seem that others have had less valuable experiences.

Cons

Seems that if it can be over complicated, it will be. Recently there has been a complete lack of direction, confounded by the utter inability of the Senior Management team to instill any belief in the company, or in their skills as leaders. There is far too much bullsh*t rhetoric that at times seems to fly directly in the face of what we are being told. However, if you can cope with this, then its fine.

Great pay ($400/day), great office perks (weekly catered lunches)

Cons

Long hours (typically 10 hour days), higher up management is chaotic and disorganized, guidance is often changing, essentially no growth opportunities, contract structure makes a high turnover rate.
