Pros

Nice base salary, signing bonus and stock options. Good promo opportunities (after the first year) Good culture and team. Team depends on your particular team though. It seems like there are a lot of good teams though.

Cons

Working hours not exactly set. Might have to be oncall and respond to incidents whenever for a few days every few weeks or so. I'm not especially looking forward to it.

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.
