Pros

Decent compensation package, opportunity to build something interesting.

Cons

Senior leadership is very unstable, no one takes accountability. Very hard to actually be an engineer due to all the turmoil that occurs between teams. Career progression is also too dependent on your team/manager.

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.
