      Pros

      Getting to build stuff that people use and love, everything you build is huge, considerable freedom to solve problems, working with super smart people, people like amazon.

      Cons

      The freedom comes with a requirement to self-manage, massively distributed systems mean a team you have never heard of can break your service, upper management can sometimes be overreactive.

      Pros

      The food, people, and location where I interned were amazing.

      Cons

      Work seemed to stall many times, with much of my progress not being able to advance past certain points due to waiting on higher ups.

      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.
