Pros

Exposed to the leading edge in cloud technology, literally nowhere else to go for that. Very fast paced environment, things can and will change with little to no notice. Generous annual retributions reviews.

Cons

Lack of structured bureaucracy means you'll often be burdened by duties that have nothing to do with your role.

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.
