Pros

- a complete open book to show show your strengths and create your own career roadmap within the organization - Incredible scale and speed of work being done - working alongside very smart people and in general humble peers - willingness to help and empathize across the team peers - once inside, there are several career paths and you can be the controller of your own destiny if you have a good team and manager

Cons

The points below can be positive if it suits your personality and work ethic, but worth mentioning if they are not already known by the reader: - ambiguity around position, priorities and responsibilities is a common result of the fast pace and growth of the business - no hand-holding or clear direction or matching of responsibility with tenure. You are expected to ramp-up, discover the most effective direction based on your goals and strengths and prioritize effectively in delivering results. - the entire experience can be very dependent on your peer team and direct manager

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.
