Pros

A great place to learn engineering best practices. You’ll have access to incredibly smart people and be offered challenges to innovate

Cons

It’s not for the faint of heart. Expectations are high and if you don’t think you’re a rock star who can deliver on those expectations it may not be for you. Pressure can be highly team dependent

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.
