Pros

You understand what really customer focus means. Gives you a chance to work on technically challenging jobs. Has really amazing people to work with. Gives you a chance to write high performance and availability code and understanding of working on applications running on large infrastructure.

Cons

Too much oncall and poor work-life balance. Has lot of competition to grow up and reach next level (promotion).

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.
