Pros

As the title reads, it really depends on what team you're on so I can't speak for everyone. But I had a good time.

Cons

Bureaucracy sometimes, slow commits. Stuff like that

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.
