      Pros

      Not much micro-management - mobility between teams - really damn smart people - freedom to talk back, stand your ground, etc. - new facilities

      Cons

      Management is never satisfied - heavily stratified hierarchy with rigidly defined roles - ridiculous promotion processes - really high turnover - crowded working spaces - lifeless, obviously exhausted staff

      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.
