Pros

A fun place to work with great perks. Free breakfast and lunch every day, with a focus on healthy and varied options. Free gym. Free Caltrain pass and shuttle. As a software engineer, the freedom to try new ideas is HUGE.

Cons

While the freedom to try new ideas is huge, the time to do so is very limited. More than half of your time is spent in support mode, so the tendency of whole development teams to succumb to trudging from one support ticket to the next instead of innovating is pretty prevalent.
