      Pros

      If you can schmooze, you can work your way onto some interesting projects. Lots of cool technology to learn.

      Cons

      Definitely saw darker-skinned colleagues being discriminated against. Stack-ranking and bucketing both incentivize sabotage over collaboration. Look up “workplace narcissism”: trauma from working with these people can follow you the rest of your life and impact your future jobs.

      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.
