Pros

The company takes bottom-up ideas very seriously. Developer has a lot of freedom to design products and the release cycle is super fast. People are very nice and professional. The technology used for development is top of the line.

Cons

Sometimes oncall is stressing for new SDEs.

Pros

Not a lot of politics. A good environment for solving problems and building cool things. Great internal tools, both for deploying and building services and for data storage, etc.

Cons

For a tech company, there is a large business side. This means you spend more time than you'd want trying to convince and work with the business instead of just creating cool products.
