Pros

The technology and internal processes are awesome. Many smart people around. Great learning experience and many ways to communicate. Ownership of the product from requirements to deployment.

Cons

No clear career path. Lack of any recognition. Boss would not ever say anything positive. I guess those are problems of specific team.

Pros

The food, people, and location where I interned were amazing.

Cons

Work seemed to stall many times, with much of my progress not being able to advance past certain points due to waiting on higher ups.

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.
