Pros

Great benefits and compensation. Lots of different technologies to work on, lots of opportunities for visibility and impact. Good place to learn and explore mobile, full stack and backend infrastructure. Fun place to work when things are going well.

Cons

High stress, lot of turnover. I've had a new manager every year. Some teams have a 24/7 work expectation. Highly competitive, and you are competing with lots of smart people. Seems very difficult to get a promotion and junior people who don't rise fast enough are pushed out. For senior engineers, one bad project or not enough impact and it can be very difficult to course-correct.

Thank you for your feedback. Incremental improvements and sustainable investments in quality are important. We see this in our weekly Q&A meetings when Mark recognizes people during the 'fix-of-the-week' and in celebrating the Faceversaries of tenured employees. That being said, we can and will do better and appreciate your feedback to help us improve.

Pros

Very nice to work at, awesome people around, interesting projects in lots of areas, you can have huge impact, good salary and benefits.

Cons

Move fast and break things may not be the best motto; it's a big company, hard to coordinate across different offices.
