      Pros

      - Money - once you have 2 years in, the salary plus stock is very competative - High visibility product - Technology focused - Smart people - Freedom to make technological decisions (i.e. not centrally mandated) - good performance review process -- highly based on peer feedback

      Cons

      - promotion is difficult past a certain point -- very few job levels - many engineers young and arrogant -- it is a culture of arrogance - poor communiation of company direction or vision - most employees will not feel valued by their senior management - no perks. Frugality means no t-shirts, free pop, or even subsidy of the cafes. Bare bones work environment.

      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.
