Pros

Competitive pay, nice employee stock program (if you make it to year 3), new offices provide a good corporate feel. High growth market leads to interesting new challenges.

Cons

High stress environment. The company strives for financial efficiencies through overworking employees. Lack of clear processes leads to "get the job done" mentality and no clear roles.

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.
