      Low pay, crushing hours, but great experience

      Pros

      The experience you can gain is incredible. You will be thrown into things you are under qualified for. If you can survive it is a great resume builder. You really do feel like your work will help change the world.

      Cons

      Pay is a joke. We try and pay like a startup, i.e. significantly below market rate(50%-75%) with equity incentives. 4 years ago that still made sense, but with where the stock is today you do not have a chance to hit the "startup lottery". Hours can be rough and most departments are understaffed. The employees they do have are often under qualified. Constant fighting between groups; it is often a giant game of CYA instead of fixing problems(more so than any company I've worked at before). Lack of proper systems. If excel disappeared the company would shut down.
