      Pros

      compensation; status (looks nice on resume); big impact

      Cons

      Lots of burn out; not many opportunities to build (software engineer turned into more a devops role). My advice to new hires: be willing to move teams!

      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.
