Pros

Interesting projects, significant autonomy, not a lot of focus on the peripherals in getting the job done. Enough funds, most of the time, to get the job done. Never bored.

Cons

Very sexist work culture. You either need a sympathetic sponsor to guide you and shelter you as a female, or you have to work in a role that people expect women to work in. I got tired of being surrounded by the boy's club and brogrammer culture.

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.
