      Pros

      * Get to work on exciting things from day 1. You set boundaries for yourself. * management is pretty good in terms of listening to engineers (at least for the technical part) * you can grow to be a leader * other smart engineers

      Cons

      * Frugality gets stretched too far sometimes * on call

      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.
