Pros

Fantastic technology and an equally encouraging environment to brings ideas to the table. They are remarkable in how a billion dollar company can do so much to feel an individual contributor feel empowered to make an impact.

Cons

They can sometimes default to being a little too conservative financially, but they are very open about communicating with employees. The Quarterly All Hands meetings put the cards on the table and they are always previewing technical products that are around the corner.
