Pros
Friendly colleagues and interesting projects to work on made the environment a pleasant one. The location is a plus, with great views of Elliott Bay.
Cons
Technically interesting projects rarely ever moved the needle in a meaningful way. Partly due to the innovator's dilemma (once you've managed to monetize 6MM paying accounts, how do you walk away from that revenue, even as every day Facebook eats more of your lunch?), and partly due to complacency and lack of vision, the company has suffered several rounds of deep layoffs in recent years.
