Pros

Truly multicultural and unique office in Palo Alto. Management is reasonable and perceptive, most of the time. Pretty flat structured company. 1x1 with colleagues 2-3 levels above are pretty common. You don't feel abandoned in a maze, people always want to help. One of the best benefits and pay in industry.

Cons

Like any live and evolving company, has it's own issues. When a project takes cross Atlantic teams involvement it may become a problem. Some processes are very slow. Company is competing with major giants in the industry but this is also makes this a good challenge.
