      Pros

      - corporate decisions mostly make sense - accommodating of work/life balance - great people to work with for the most part

      Cons

      - not a lot of opportunity to move up - a lot of technologies are internal so long careers there can suffer from being siloed to a proprietary tech space - every now and then the company guidelines (regarding promotion, performance review) feel lacking and vague

      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.
