Pros

Awesome co-workers, very talent and helpful. Compensation is above market average. The variety of opportunities to pick interesting projects is amazing.

Cons

Poor work-life balance in the majority of the teams. Software developers workload involves significant portions of Operations in addition to Development, which is a great experience, however the Development portion is plagued by too much internal friction across teams.

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.
