Pros

Good for college grads with no other job offers no previous work experience, fair place to start your carrier each team is independent some teams are really good place to work.

Cons

On-call duty (24 hour on call one week every couple of weeks) Long working hours after one year, not much to learn that can be used in other companies.

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.
