Pros

Great place to get things done and grow your resume. You are working with really smart people and have access to a lot of enablers. The culture here enshrines "bias for action" which is your license to cut through the red tape when it gets in the way.

Cons

Low titles, lack of performance pay. The appearance of frugality is valued beyond its business benefit. This can make you feel less valued regardless of your salary. Stack ranking encourages people to play the system rather than do the right thing. Negotiate hard before you arrive.

Pros

The policies are really nice. Very transparent. And yeah full freedom at work place. The people around are always nice and are technically best in class.

Cons

Located at a very bad place. Really frugal in some aspects. Growth in general is slow. Salary in India does not increase for almost 2-3 years.
