CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Access to great analytic tools, high-quality colleagues, campus is beautiful and complete, there is little reason to leave campus

Cons

As with many large companies, various parts of the company work in silos. If you want to do something that is a bit different than usual, you will have a hard time lining up the various teams.

Really is a great place to work, but...

Principal software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Possible to work on the most advanced projects in the world. Mostly extremely smart, very nice people. Work with people from all over the world. Great work/life balance

Cons

As usual, your day to day life really depends on your manager, and they don't require management training. Results can be spotty. As a developer, you pretty much have to program in C or Java.
