Pros

Great for a resume boost; you will have plenty of stories to be able to speak to positive and negative experiences. Unbeatable resources - so many internal or comped learning resources

Cons

Lack of humanity and compassion. Lost my sanity for a while and new it was my sign to leave

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.
