Pros

Employee will have lot of responsibilities and ownership. People can gain lot of exposure and can directly interact with senior principal engineers. No timings, No dress code and No formalities. Friendly and start-up kind of atmosphere.

Cons

Agile working methodology. Not much importance given to individual growth path. Most of the time trying to get a short term solution rather than spending time on proper long term solution.

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.
