Pros

It thinks like a business - Work hard get paid fat - Showers RSUs if you believe in the growth of the company it's a pro

Cons

- You are only as important as the requirement you had. No job security - No extra benefits besides salary and RSU - Don't expect growth in career

Compensation can't be matched

Business Outlook

Pros

CEO runs a tight ship, but clearly the results over the passed decade are second to none. Base salary is on par with the industry, but the RSU's are what set the company apart. RSU's are granted every year and vest over a 4 year window. So after 4 years you'll have 4 separate RSU's that are stacked on top of each other and vesting together.

Cons

There is no work from home, its 100% in office work. Of course, this could be a Pro for some people. There is no defined vacation policy either, which means you almost always get less than if they just told you that you can have X number of days or weeks.

Business Outlook

Pros

It's a demanding job and business but it's satisfactory.

Cons

Compared to other SV companies there are no free swags, but current economics are strong enough to neglect it. There should be more interoffice collaboration and networking between different BUs.
