Pros

Good comp, autonomy (for most part), ability to influence your objectives

Cons

Satisfaction/ability to succeed and/or advance in career are largely dependent on how competent your direct manager (and sometimes skip-level) is and how much they go to bat for you. Of course, you still have to be competent and hard working, I was fortunate to have capable and supportive managers during my tenure… but I’ve seen more than a few colleagues get held back from promotion and even pushed out of positions they were performing well in because they’re managers did not like them personally.

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.
