Pros

Great location, great team, great culture among engineers and developers.

Cons

Company doesn't have a clear direction. They cut perks without notice, lot of time waste in meetings without any mean... team gathering every morning for almost no reason or no way to hear other as the number of ppl was so big, it was impossible to hear the person in the opposite side... just heard recently that they had a massive layoff... (over 50 ppl) - I guess not a stable place to be.

Pros

There were always meals and snacks provided.

Cons

Seems that the company spent too much money on keeping the employees happy versus investing into the actual business. Some people wouldn't consider this a con, but it led to them laying off 60% of the workforce to reduce overhead for the sale to Apple.
