Pros

Great pay and benefits. Relative security.

Cons

Extreme amount of stress and hours. Very little recognition for a job well done or for hours and effort required to do job. Standards are so high that perfection is required- mistakes are not easily forgiven. Micro-managment on steroids.

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.
