Pros

People are nice, for the most part

Cons

Many employees, mainly management, hide behind the Principles to do a poor job. they say they care about customers but, in fact, they care about $$$ and how can you do the job spending the bare minimum amount. They don't care if you have to do the work manually or use a bad tool as long as you are 'frugal'

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.
